My good friend and well known Atlanta guitar teacher, Chicago Joe Jones is putting on a very special concert in my honor this week. Chicago Joe performs every Thursday at Maddy's BBQ in Decatur. On the first Thursday of each month, Joe invites all of his young students and their families to come out and have a teen blues jam. It is quite a sight.
This Thursday, June 4, the show has been dubbed the "Kids For Carlos" night and collections will be made to assist in my upcoming medical expenses.
Maddy's is family friendly joint, the food is great GA BBQ, these kids will really impress you, and hey, it's not a bad cause either!! I will be there from the start until around 9pm and then I am off to the Northside for our weekly Breeze Kings show.
