Looking for something really fun to do on Halloween this year?
Join Blue Lisa, Andrea Dawson, Jackie Don Loe, Chuck "Popcorn" Lowden and Jay Dronge for a very special night of blues tricks and treats on Halloween, or as Andrea calls it, "DIVAween" at Nate's Seafood in Addison, Tuesday, October 31 from 7 pm until 11 pm. This is Nate's 18th Annual Halloween Celebration, but I do believe it's his first DIVAween!
It will be THE place to be on Halloween night. Great food, the best blues in town, and a costume contest. (Can't wait to see what Nate himself comes as!) Winners of the costume contest will receive gift certificates from Nate's - 1st Prize - $100.00 gift vertificate, 2nd Prize - $75.00 gift certificate and 3rd Prize $25.00 gift certificate. Now there's a prize worth competing for! That yummy Nate's gumbo. And oh-my-goodness that bread pudding!! Makes me hungry just to think about it!!
You can be sure that all kinds of craziness will be going on. Thank heavens for all our reputations that as Jackie Don says "What happens at Nate's stays at Nate's!"
For directions check out www.natesseafood.com
Be there, Darlings, for a frightfully good time!!

NATE AT THE STATE FAIR OF TEXAS
Just a heads up that Chef Nathan Peck, known to blues fans and lovers of fabulous cajun food worldwide as Nate, will be presenting a cooking demonstration as a Celebrity Chef this Saturday afternoon at 2:30 pm in the Creative Arts Building at the Great State Fair of Texas!
Blue Lisa is such a fan of Nate's seafood gumbo, that she has to have it at least once a week, or suffers terrible withdrawl!
Nate is a tireless supporter of Blue Lisa's KNON Big Texs Blues radio show, Blue Lisa & the T-Bonz, and all the blues musicians in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.
And you just haven't lived until you've seen him doing the "Nate Boogie."
So take advantage of this rare opportunity to see the master at work. Admission to the cooking demo is free with your paid admission to the State Fair.

SUNDAY'S SHOW AT KC'S
Don't say I didn't warn you. If you missed it, get ready to start hearing about it all over the place.
What a great time last night at KC's. Pat Boyack, Red Young and Brian "H-Bomb" Ferguson put on an awesome show, with a number of guests setting in, including myself, Cheryl Arena, Andrea Dawson, Ponty Bone, Hash Brown (popping in to play before heading over for the first night of his brand new jam in North Dallas), and the one and only Mr. Joe Jonas, in MY opinion, the best blues vocalist in this (and probably every other) area. I was honored to get invited up, but damn, did it have to be right after Andrea? She's my friend and I love her, but she's a tough act to follow!
Joanna Iz, publisher of "Southwest Blues Magazine", was in the house, and I saw her taking pictures, so hopefully some of those will end up in the magazine. (The October issue is on the streets. Be sure to check out my reviews of the new Cheryl Arena and Aaron Burton CD "Good Old Wagon", and also a cool new CD, "Lucky 13", from Australian singer/guitarist Fiona Boyes.)
Every week I tell you on BIG TEXAS BLUES to go out and see some live blues and support the scene, and this show was a true example of just that. Much, much thanks to Jeff & Robin Horton, Swag (also known as Mr & Mrs Salty), Jim Weiss, and Chuck Nevitt, all of whom put their money where their mouths were and made the whole thing possible.
Quite the night of funky blues in the super cool juke joint setting of KC's. Wow.
