Make no Muss-take about it, there are quality appearances being made locally:
— Woody’s in Bayport is again having one of its periodic guest appearances, and this one is sure to raise a fuss, because it involves a live broadcast by Muss from Country K102. He will on at Woody’s from 3-7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 21. Tickets will be given out for the Minnesota State Fair grandstand show by Carrie Underwood. The people at Woody’s will as they say, “fire up the party,” when the Miller Lite girls make a showing of their own from 5-7 p.m. There are taps of that brew available from 2-3 p.m. for, you guessed it, $1.02. This is one of several beer specials.
— Recently, Fat Bottom Girls was playing on the juke box at the Cajun Club, while a very tiny dancer did her Queen routine. No comment from me. I will chime in on the dancing showcased downtown, with some styles that were either like that of an amped up Peewee Herman or a karate kick-boxer-dancer.
— The Smilin’ Moose brings back old favorites, both last Friday and this coming Friday. Longtime rockers Audio Circus, who have performed in Hudson many times, were back on last weekend, and now seven days later, its the return of the very solid, top to bottom, strains of the Tim Sigler band. Most people tend to think the cover charge, which isn’t cheap, is worth the price of admission.
— Female-doing-male songs was again the highlight when Solving 27 hit the stage at the Village Inn in North Hudson, twice in recent weeks. Singer Billie Jo did The Stones and a bit later The Police. Then, inserted into the middle of their set list, was Rock ‘N Roll by Led Zeppelin. Besides noteworthy “falsetto,” there were some high-powered, grinding guitar riffs used on Roadhouse Blues, and some guitar fills inserted into a few songs, also. Look for them at The Village again soon. But meanwhile, this Satuday night, check out the down-home, Cajun infused blues of the Swamp Kings there.The dancing showcased some styles that were either like that of an amped up Peewee Herman or a karate dancer.
