I just got back from a fantastic solo show by “The Man” himself, Chick Prophet, at “the best little venue in America”, Eddie’s Attic. I was joined by Friendly Forum members West Words & stoger – thanks to the both of you for sharing the evening with me! 😀

Absolutely “the best musician you’ve never heard”! (Chuck’s words)
And, another True Blood soundtrack contributor with “You Did (Bomp Shooby Dooby Bomp)”.
P.S. Chuck told us a story about how he had just gotten home to San Francisco after a 9-hour Southwest Airlines flight returning from a tour, and was starving because they’d only fed him the tiny bags of peanuts. The phone rings that Lucinda is at the Fillmore, and to hurry up and get down there. Chuck’s starving so he was rushing around the house trying to scavenge some food. In his haste, he just about sliced off the tip of his finger and there was blood everywhere –
… sounds like a song to me! 😀

…and he bandaging it up & playing on stage at the Fillmore anyway, using only 3 fingers! 😆

P.S. “Barracuda!!!”
Especially for Tom T & Stoger –

Looks like they have been spinning Chuck like crazy on my favorite local NPR station.
I found one in studio podcasted interview & performance from 2007.
Salute.

Hey Moderator, here is “Chick” 😆 Ain’t no spell check on this forum 😆 at Eddie’s Attic last week-two solo You Tubes which I understand you attended with stoger and (Sandyeggo, Sandy Claus, West Words, or Negative Nellie), just in case there is the rare chance that you haven’t seen these clips.
For the memories.All kidding aside, great music.

lwjGood ones, LWJ! (hmmm….will need to think of some more names for myself…) 😉
‘Chick’ not only put on a great music show, but was also a great stand-up comedian that night.
Thanks for posting the video clips. 🙂
