BuzzCutz #053 - The Dame Judy Episode

jared — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 16:19:46 +0000

Jef Roberts is a mainstay of the Tri-Cities music scene, and has been playing tunes around here since he was about three or four years old, it seems.Â Things have come full circle for him, as his band, Punchin’ Judy, has moved into its own adulthood, and is still going strong.Â Nineteen years and a few member changes have given him a wealth of experience and perspective, and he was kind enough to drop in and share both with us this week.

Dave took the day off as he was a little under the weather, and he was sorely missed.Â Tom and I trudged forward with the madman Roberts, and fun was had by all - we could have told stories for hours on end, and never repeat a single one.Â So, give us a listen and see what you think.Â Then drop us a line and tell us what those thoughts may be.Â It’s an endless cycle.

Hope you enjoy, I know we did.

BuzzCutz #052 - The Yearly Check-up Episode

jared — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 15:38:27 +0000

Dave Manning is one of our favorite club owners in the tri-cities, and he came down to the studio to talk about his place in Bristol, O’Mainnin’s, and what they have going on in the near and far.Â His place was a mob scene during Rhythm and Roots, and he and his staff handled it like champs.Â He seems to take care of things like that.

Tom busted him on the stairs (and Dave and I agreed…), and the load-in they create, but that seems to be the lone complaint about the downtown establishment for folks these days.Â We had a good time talking with him, and we hope you enjoy listening.
