I was going to poste this in Bilge but it's big news to me. I am a big fan. Luckily I got to see him at Bimbo's in San Francisco a couple of years ago. He wasn't even that drunk on stage!

Last Saturday I found a couple of his records that I didn't have at a garage sale.

And he was due to play 5 dates in Oakland at Yoshi's next week.

What a shock!
