Corey Dennison LIVE 1/13/17




Some good blues with some friends at Wild Rose tonight. This being the first time ever hearing the Corey Dennison Band. For my bride Chrisi, oh she seems to have seen every band or band member play for some time now.

I have known Gerry Hundt for a while now, playing his one-man-band. I have to say, I can tell he enjoys his instrumental freedom when playing with Corey. A different level of blues comes out. One that seamlessly rides with the waves, taking in the audience, making corrections as to their vibes.

If you have never met Corey, you should. He has a mission with his blues. He is in tune with his body, as his heart guides him how to play. He is a story teller, his is uplifting, he is soulful. You will understand and know Corey once you have sat down and listened.

Nik Skilnik can play the straight man for Corey, but does he kick it on base. His solo was amazing. I had to yell a couple times during his solo. He seemed to feed off the crowd, as Corey does, to adjust his play for us.

Joel Baer on drums was a cool crisp sound. His solo as well was beyond the norm, playing every which way you could, from sticks to hands to fingers resonating of the rim.

Here are some photos from the evening. Enjoy!

Paul Henry's Acoustic Jam 315



Five years ago today was my first visit to Paul Henry's Art Gallery, downtown Hammond, Indiana. It was their 69th Jam then. We are now up to 315! Five years ago today was also when I first photographed people, meeting for the very first time Melissa Latronica, Lou Shields, Rich Hall, Joey Humphrey, Don Taylor, Carl Strain, Brabant Lenting, Gary Price, Lauren Dunning, John Brudek, and from a photo I am looking at back then, Michael Nowak.

I have met many more friends there since then. This is the place to go, to kick back and to enjoy the art, the music, and of course the people. A very interesting place to buy art any day of the week, and to grab a hot pot luck meal on a Thursday night. ($5 cover unless you are an artist with some work there, providing some of the pot luck, or providing some of the entertainment in which case $3.)

The above photo is of Haley, who I enjoy watching her artistry over the years. She acts, writes and plays music, and is a wonderful gal. 

Here are some photos of this evening.
