Hoo-Booooyo – things are heating up behind the scenes! But first…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Midnight Hour Band is playing Nissi’s at the end of the month. But you already know that. So let’s move on to today’s bulletin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’ve just scored a night at the Magic Rat in Fort Collins. This coming Wednesday, 2025 Oct 08 at 7pm. When I say ‘we’, I mean an interesting offshoot of the Midnight Hour Band. One I am at least temporarily calling ‘Three Minutes to Midnight’ (I have not secured authorization to employ such name from the affected parties, but that’s how I roll).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Three Minutes to Midnight features the soaring vocals of Cindy and Breanne from MHB, with yours truly (Joe Bear) providing acoustic backing. And Jimmy Z is rumored to be threatening to add some underlayment foundation in places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ll precede that with a set of my digitally enhanced solo madness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Join us for a fun evening of acoustic tuneage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other newsy bits: Back in the early 90s, I was a member of the PowerHouse Blues Band. I do want you to give a listen to East St. Louie Woman – a PHBB original.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Geoff Meyer and I – the very we of PHBB – have reconnected of late, and have been meeting regularly over the last several months to write up a bunch of new songs and record some of them down for public dissemination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
East St. Louie Woman is a reflection of where we were over thirty years ago. Just to whet your whistle for what’s next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
