tuck's music journal

I write about local music stuff in West Virginia and nearby Ohio. I post lots of information about the Greens and musical benefit events I organize for my non profit organization. Americana music focused.

Hank Williams Tribute tomorrow night

We're up to one night away for the Hank Williams tribute show, here in Parkersburg, as part of our 2010 Americana Music Tribute Series. These events are live music benefits for our non profit agency, Children's Home Society of West Virginia. Local musicians play sets of songs honoring that night's Americana music legend. $5 donation. Prizes and contests throughout the evening. We build up a lot of enthusiasm for the events with lead-up trivia contests and trading stories. Its at 6 Pence Pub on 7th St. in Parkersburg. Kim hosts us well these days for the events, after several years of moving the events around town. We are having a Cajun Cookoff this year again, prior to the music. (I stole the idea from a Hank Fest in Chicago)- a Jambalaya cookoff. Crawfish pie 'n' all.
