I know there's quite a few NW'ers in the group, so figured i'd put out a plug for the show before it sells out. Tickets just went on sale today!

American Strings: An Evening with Hot Tuna (Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Cassady)
April 8 at 7:30pm
Starker Auditorium
Tickets: $20 in advance $25 at the door
Content: All Audiences
Kaukonen and Casady, friends since childhood, were founding members of the counterculture-era, psychedelic rock group, “Jefferson Airplane,” alongside Marty Balin, Paul Kantner, Spencer Dryden and Grace Slick. The duo’s blues-rock group, Hot Tuna, initially was started in 1969 as a side project to keep Kaukonen and Casady playing music during a period when Airplane’s Slick was on vocal rest.
Now, more than 50 years later, Hot Tuna has recorded two dozen albums, played thousands of concerts around the world and experienced a legendary career of performing roots-based electric and acoustic blues music that continues to this day and includes a roster of well-known guest artists.
Hosted by OSU Director of Popular Music and Performing Arts, Bob Santelli, each segment of American Strings is comprised of a conversation, audience Q&A, and performance, making for a one of a kind opportunity to appreciate and know better the great American music tradition.

Can't believe I'm gonna pass
Can't believe I'm gonna pass on hometown Tuna, but the last time I went to one of those American Strings things (Arlo Guthrie's daughter), it was an hour of lame questions and a half hour of music. YMMV.

I've smoked a joint w/ them before, maybe i'll get to again, lol...
Saw Bill Frisell and Thomas Morgan last year in the MU, got to ask Bill a question as part of the Q&A (about John Zorn, gave a very long answer, including how he met his wife, who does sound for them, was fun)
What would you ask Jorma / Jack?

Claudia, who booked the show,
Claudia, who booked the show, got the original copies (my copy got lost decades ago). I worked the show, so was a benny. I was a huge bootleg collector back then, can't remember if Dave got his copy from me, Bill, or Claudia, either way, was damn cool of him to digitize it!!! Kudos!
