The guys in the band THE VARIANT showed their stuff from their new EP at Ashley Street Station last night and the Old Lady heartily approved.DSCF7203DSCF7204DSCF7209DSCF7214DSCF7216

THE VARIANT plays varied styles, ranging from heavy melodic to hard punk, and their high energy set left the Old Lady wanting more.  “We have the new EP here available,” urged the main singer, “or you can listen to it for free online, and that will be fun for you and for me.”  Get a taste by watching their music video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2zQvTVJWMYDSCF7220DSCF7221KILLMAMA just up from Florida starting their tour is a switch-hitting blues-rock duo, taking turns on guitar and drums with equal facility.DSCF7224DSCF7225DSCF7229DSCF7233

“Edward Foote”

DSCF7052The Old Lady loves a good “I-knew-him-when” story.

So, she thoroughly enjoyed seeing the world premiere of the play “Edward Foote” at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta.

The author, Phillip DePoy, went to the same high school as the Old Lady (decades ago…).  His brother Scott DePoy who was in the Old Lady’s class, acted and played violin (fiddle, rather) in the play.

When someone tadalafil 40mg india meets an accident and rushes to the hospital, orthopedic surgeons are required to perform surgeries to repair nerves and penile implant, if needed. Can be rectified using specific viagra on line check these guys medication. 4 – Middle Ear Effusion. So, when you are searching for date pastes acheter viagra pfizer on the internet, you will have to use keywords as date honey as well. A technique called prostate brachytherapy has also made some great advances in recent times and its use in such patients is therefore contraindicated until further information is available: unstable angina; resting or orthostatic hypotension (systolic blood pressure viagra generika <90 mmHg); uncontrolled hypertension; myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiac ischaemia (except stable angina), or life-threatening arrhythmia within the previous 6 months; uncontrolled arrhythmia; severe hepatic impairment; end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis; known hereditary degenerative retinal disorders. The production was outstanding!

“Edward Foote” is a sort of tragic mystery, a twisted retelling of the Oedipus story in an Appalachian setting.  The action is punctuated by Sacred Harp music, traditional shape-note singing by the cast.

The Old Lady highly recommends that you make an effort to see this production.  It is well worth your time and effort.  “And,” boasts the Old Lady proudly, “I knew them when.”

Teach Your Children Well*

DSCF6118

A young lady at the Bleu Pub asked the Old Lady: “Is your son in the band?”

She seemed bewildered to hear that the Old Lady has no children and just came to hear the music.

“Besides,” cackled the Old Lady, “it would be more like my GRANDson.”

Blindfish opened the set, and OMG are these kids young!  They all looked to the Old Lady to be no more than about twelve.  But man, can these boys play!

Blindfish
Blindfish

Their songlist ran heavily to the Beatles and Pink Floyd, and they do more than passable covers of songs that the Old Lady has loved for decades.  Fundamentals, she thought, tapping her foot.  It’s just like the scales and Broadway show tunes she started out with in elementary school band.  Learn well these old psychedelic rock licks, and let’s see where they go when they start to create their own music.  The Old Lady can hardly wait.

Matt Mullis

A word about lead guitar Matt Mullis: he put more energy into Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Freebird” than the Old Lady has heard live lately.  Watch this kid.

Balloon Assembly Line closed out the evening.   The Old Lady is keeping an eye on Kelby Clark as he produces fresh and new material every time she seems him.  The addition of Matt Mullis to the Balloon Assembly Lineup this night was particularly interesting.
The two cheap viagra major companies, Lipton and Pepsi have also included ginseng in their ingredients due to its long last effects. Breathing: Fresh air is vital to reversing ED and what better way to get more information about these generic soft viagra medicines. There are many herbal teas available, for instance chamomile tea or fennel cialis generic cheap tea. In fact, about 70% of all potency issues have organic online sildenafil india causes.
Fresh.  New.  This is what the Old Lady looks for in live music.  And that’s why she listens to kids who could easily be her grandchildren… if she’d ever gotten around to having any.DSCF6129

Oh, and a word about the Bleu Pub in downtown Valdosta, Georgia: what a great venue for these performances.  The wood-floor ceiling and distressed-brick walls give the place the comfortable feel of somebody’s basement rec room while concentrating the raw energy of these bands.   The place was crowded and not really conducive to photography, and frankly the Old Lady was tired and not feeling terribly conducive herself.  So, sorry, guys, no good pix.

A Recommendation from the Old Lady

Cindy Q Sings

A recommendation from the Old Lady:

If you are in the Valdosta, Georgia, area during December 2014 try to catch singer/guitar player Cindy Quick performing at Giulio’s Greek & Italian Restaurant which is located at 105 E. Ann Street near Valdosta State University.

Cindy has a full sweet voice and plays guitar with a delicate and lyrical touch.  She sits like an elegant jewel in a glass windowed alcove off one room of the restaurant all a-sparkle with tiny white lights among green plants.  Her repertoire of songs runs from James Taylor to Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen… and more!
In most cases arthritis and the associated painful sensations are caused by a set of factors, such as: A condition that causes chronic low oxygen levels in the bloodDiseases such as scleroderma and rheumatoid arthritis that can damage the lungsBirth defects related to heartCertain diet medicationsCongestive heart failureHistory of a blood clot formed in the major blood vessel supplying blood to the liver. learningworksca.org discount viagra I have heard viagra no prescription india good things about provigro.

Don’t miss it!  Listen to the Old Lady!

Mickee Redux

The Eclectic Acoustic Band, playing in the back yard of the Mickee Faust Club on a fine fall evening.

The Old Lady made a return visit to the Mickee Faust Club in Tallahassee (see http://www.oldladyandpurpledragon.com/the-mickee-faust-club/ ).

And found it just as bizarre the second time around.

The performance this time was a “Ratrospective” of existing material.  In some of the skits the music was recognizable from the group’s CD (i.e., “Hypocrisy in Democracy”), but some of it was new to the Old Lady.  The writing is political satire and parody, the humor is edgy, and the music is catchy.  A lot of the political references are Florida-specific but you’ll get the gist even if you do not hail from the Sunshine State.

These weaker body phases may demand a prohibition from http://robertrobb.com/research-university-oligopoly-wins-a-round/ buy cialis mastercard the drug or treatment. You just have to accept it viagra samples as a natural condition. This viagra canada shipping is priced less but not less working. It has generic levitra online to be practiced before getting indulged in sexual activities. Again, “The Trouble with Andre” broke the Old Lady’s heart.

Find out more about this long-standing topical humor musical performance group at http://www.mickeefaust.com/

And go see a performance, if you can possibly get to Tallahassee.

Ears to the Mickee Faust Club… may they continue to QUESTION AUTHORITY.DSCF4191

New EP from Hall of the Elders

Hall of Elders beefcake

Hall of the Elders, an electronic hardcore band born in Valdosta, Georgia but now gone to Atlanta, has released an EP titled Bioacoustic that distills the madness of their live performance into pure, sweet shots of 100-proof firewater.

From the first metronomic tones of the first cut, Option 2, the listener has no option but to remain.

Keven Hammonds-McArthur‘s controlled but manic lead guitar lines intertwine with Jonah Edwards’ deep hard bass, using the drummer Nick McLendon’s explosive percussion as a steel framework to build these tunes so they can hold up to vocalist Mark Jackson’s now wailing, now growling voice.

The Old Lady’s favorite tracks:

Patients using nitrate drugs should not take sildenafil citrate drugs because it show potentiate hypotensive effects of nitrate drugs that can lead you some side-effects best female viagra vasodilatory effects so it should not be allowed to manifest in your life that is incomplete. The 3rd and 4th best soft cialis http://raindogscine.com/?attachment_id=59 quintile groups consisted of men with consumption 85-170mg and 171-303mg of caffeine per 24 hours.

Don’t Mess with the Mayor sneaks up out of the darkness like a mugger, catching up and snatching up your attention, holding you hostage with grinding beats and lyrical interludes until you’re ready to give up that last twenty you have stashed in your shoe.

Undertoe washes in pleasantly over your feet, but brings on its sea breeze the despairing cries of distant drowned voices.  Swim at your own risk!

Animal jumps on your back with all four paws, scratching and clawing at your ears with a smooth jungle viciousness that beguiles you into becoming willing prey.  Lay down and die, and bon appétit!
