Here’s my story from today’s front page, on what I promise will be my last test-score story for a while. I hope.
Austinites, clear your calendars for next Thursday and Friday, when the Red Stick Ramblers — the official Cajun gypsy swing band of crabwalk.com — will be playing the Cactus Cafe and the Continental Club.
Me, I’m going to Austin tonight to get away from Big D for a while. Back on Monday.
Those Ramblers are busy boys. I'll be seeing them this Sunday in Long Beach, in what I believe is their L.A.-area debut (first of many, I hope).
In fact, they might just find themselves being the Official Cajun Gypsy Swing Band of two weblogs. They're getting to be one of my Very Favorite Bands, and I really can't wait for their next record.
