Two Shows to See This Week in the Ditch

As luck sometimes has it, the two shows I'm most looking forward to this week are on the same night.

Thu (7/9) - Jimbo Mathus & the Tri-State Coalition @ Rooster's

Jimbo is one of the greatest showmen in the area.  He simply knows how to entertain a crowd.  This is honky-tonk music at its best.

Thu (7/9) - Rocket 88 (acoustic trio version) @ Blind Pig

My favorite Oxford band always puts on a good show in the cozy confines of the Blind Pig.  I'll be catching as much of this one as possible when Jimbo and crew have some down time.

Jimbo Mathus & the Tri-State Coalition - "Tell it to the Judge"

Rocket 88 with Mayhem String Band - "King Moonshine"
@ Music in the Hall
