We saw him two two weeks ago and the audience appreciated what he was doing; hell, we even applauded during the film clips (Madison loves films in general).

OK, the dust has settled (for the most part) on lucky dips and it looks like it was deep frying turkey for some. Huh? Well, to deep fry turkey, you need to prep a bit. Most important: measure your bird with water beforehand so you know how much (peanut) oil to use when you actually start this endeavor. If you don't, well, your neighbors will have stories to tell about "that guy." T

The Foos are great. First time we saw them was with Mike Watt and Hovercraft where they acquitted themselves well. We've seen them five times since and they never disappointed. Just good rock which tends to be in short supply these days.
