Nice work, Furniture Market...
...for pulling down Blues Traveler to perform on Sunday, April 18. It's just too bad that you have to have a Market badge to see them.
Tobacco A Go Go

They played great rock and roll in North Carolina long before Superchunk, even Arrogance: Winston-Salem's Teenbeets, Statesville's 18th Edition, the Five Royales and, of course, Doug Clark & the Hot Nuts. Kudos to Michael Slawter of Winston-Salem for keeping some of the music alive with his NC Music History blog.
A recent post releases Tobacco A Go Go Vol. 3: 1966-1968 on MP3. Michael says there's no vinyl or CD format. I love the cover, a spoof on Jefferson Airplane's Surrealistic Pillow, with Ava Gardner standing in for Grace Slick, alongside a host of other North Carolina notables, including Michael Jordan and Clay Aiken.
