FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26Th 7:30pm PICKLED OKRA IN CONCERT.
We keep serving them up, and you keep asking for another helping. So here they are. There are many bluegrass and old-timey bands in the Northwest, but none quite like PICKLED OKRA. They breathe new life into a classic genre with fresh ideas and playful family charm. Conceived in 2006 by a husband and wife team, Todd and Paisley Gray, playing of mandolin, upright bass, and banjo leaving plenty of room for their rich vocal harmonies. New bandmates, and Alyse Read (banjo) complete the band's rich sound.
Yes they all know their bluegrass licks and aren’t afraid to show them off, and their music is full of ideas borrowed from old time fiddle tunes, jazzy delta blues, pop, rock, reggae and funk as we. No Cover. Donations appreciated. Hear Pickled Okra: http://getokra.com/fr_home.cfm.

Seven DIrty Words.

At the old Couth Buzzard Books shoppers were offered $.50 off of their purchase if they could list one to the Seven Dirty Words from the famous George Carlin comedy routine. Many customers where shocked that they were encouraged to say the words that everyone say privately, publicly. Happily shocked. Anyway, below is a review of a new biography of Carlin: Seven Dirty Words: The Life and Crimes of George Carlin, by James Sullivan. The review is mixed, but any insight into the life of this brilliant comedian and wordsmith is probably worth the read. As the reviewer stated: "Well, here’s a cockeyed salute, then, a moment of dazzled mental genuflection for a comic who, every once in a while, felt like the most alive human being on the planet." The most alive human being, indeed! Here's the NY Times Review: Click Here:
