I caught a 3-buck-cover Blues show in Royal Oak tonight.  The Smokin' Joe 
Kubek Band - featuring Bnois King.  I stayed for the long first set and 
then bagged (had surgery Tues., but I wasn't going to miss this).
Joe played a Lake Placid Blue small-headstock Strat and 2 LP's--a green 
one and a Goldtop that went haywire halfway thru the set.  Bnois played a 
cherry red 335.  I saw when I went up to the stage after the set that it 
had a bound body and block markers and a lot of arm wear--didn't ask what 
year.  Both guys' main amps were Twin Reverbs, Joe's a blackface and 
Bnois's a silverface.  One tune had heavy Leslie-osity going on, but I 
didn't see a big L cab anywhere.
  Glad I caught this show.  I missed Joanna Connor last year at this same 
venue--she would've been another Beeg Bargain.  She plays great Blues on 
her LP.  Sat at the bar and could see fine.  My left ear is just now 
coming back on-line.
