FiddleMan Mailing List
Mark Indictor's Upcoming Appearances
Thursday, August 26, 2004

There has been some extraordinary music played since my last FiddleMan issue on August 9^th.

The Hot Lips & Fingertips concert at the Culver City Hall was packed! People stayed for the second show, and we got a standing ovation. That felt really good. Thank you!

The Kulak’s show on the 14^th was really nice also. Half of HL&FT plus half of Monty Byrom’s Big House band played music in the round on Saturday night. I wonderful time was had by all.

On a side note, I was taken to task regarding editorializing about a potential “urban myths” under false pretenses. So I just want to apologize to anyone who might have been offended by my mailing that included writing allegedly credited to George Carlin in a message that still bore the Subject line of a “FiddleMan Gig List”. (I forgot to change the subject…oops). Anyway, I do not know for sure if George Carlin wrote those words, but they inspired me nonetheless, and I felt I wanted to share them with my friends. I will think twice before using this list for other than shameless self-promotion in the future.

Back to business: In the next few weeks, I will be playing with two of my favorite bands, “Border Radio” and “Acadiana”. Border Radio is a remarkable old-time and original cowboy swing band (fiddle, dobro, bass, guitar and featuring one of the sweetest voices this side of the Pecos – Kelly McCune). Acadiana is a Cajun-Zydeco and blues band featuring the incomparable guitar and vocal work of Teresa Russell. Also, on September 10^th, don’t forget a rare and wonderful night of Celtic music with Solas. This show is kicked-off by Ken O'Malley and his The Twilight Lords at the John Anson Ford Theater.

Remember, between mailings of the FiddleMan Mailing List, you can always check the very latest schedule updates at Mark’s Gig List.

See you at the gig!

All the best,
