Creative Loafing asked me what to expect tonight at Tom Cheshire & Friends, a night of words and music. The answer is of course anything.
Blake Rainey, a man known for his guitar work in All Night Drug Prowling Wolves, will be opening.
Dave Daniels takes the stage next. I haven’t met the man but I heard he’s Leonard Cohen dipped in a bucket of Woody Allen. I’m sold.
Bill Taft will might tell a story, he might sing a song, he might yell through both of those options.
From there I read.
Jamie Iredell will no doubt have his delightful prose and poetry ready for action. My hope is for a few selections from his newest release, Book of Freaks.
After that the Pulitzer Prize nominated Charles McNair will read. The last I spoke with McNair he said that he would be previewing his upcoming novel.
After that Tom Cheshire will bring songs and poems, joined by friends, this will be his last time on the Star Bar stage for some time as he hops a train to New York city in under thirty days. Tonight we show him off, and hopefully we won’t too much of a haze to scramble through for memories of tonight.
