Some Dave Konsa photos...

Our good friends and fellow blues maniacs Dave and Pam Konsa have been fans of my various bands over the years.  They live in Tacoma, WA but they trek all over Washington to see the band play, which we have always appreciated.  Dave always gives me a photo or two that he has created at various gigs, so I thought I would share a few of them with you here - enjoy!

Kirk Tuttle - 1942 to 2011
RIP

Our old friend and terrific drummer, Kirk "KT" Tuttle, died this morning (1/27/11) at Seattle's Swedish Hospital from complications associated with liver disease.  He was 68 years-old.  He will be sorely missed by the Seattle blues music community.  Photo created by Phil Chesnut.
