Split Bill
two of our favorite blues man
Mark T Small
& Russ (the man) Mello
 Mark's
solo show includes many great traditional delta blues numbers with a Chicago blues slant that transforms each tune into a "tour de force". Included are the blazing flat picking techniques that grabbed audiences in Mark's bluegrass days, the hot slide guitar playing that creates a mood and tambre change in each set and, the showmanship that was developed from years of experience as a band "front man". The end result is a night of blues and boogie woogie that can't be beat. Solo Delta & Chicago Blues
Wow—another hot blues player, with a satin voice to boot. Highlight of Russ' set: Big Bill Broonzy's "Hey, Hey," the lyrics of which run: "Hey, hey, hey, hey, baby, hey." There's still a raging debate as to whether it was actually written by Shakespeare or Ben Johnson.

tribute to CREAM’S enduring musical legacy, with a state of the art sound and light show. WHEELS OF FIRE captures the live excitement, sound, intensity, and improvisational psychedelia of the early power trio format with inspired spot-on performances by lead guitar/vocalist Michael Paolucci, drummer/vocalist Peter Ferraguto, and Conrad Mlynarski on Bass guitar. Just close your eyes, listen, and let the music transport you back to the psychedelic 60’s.
