|It was a wild night in Oakland on Saturday.  I went to Dotha's Juke Joint and caught Birdlegg with Steve Freund and a new rhythm section that was nothing short of excellent.  Birdlegg was at the top of his game last night.  The man is an old school entertainer.
There was a 26 year old female saxophone player in the house.  She played most of the second set.  Alvon dropped by for a bit and played three or four tunes.  Little Willie John Jr was celebrating his birthday.  He sang three or four tunes including a Johnny Taylor and ZZ Hill tune.  Tia Carroll also sang a couple of numbers.  She's a fabulous singer.
There were a few more performers in the audience, but I was dead tired and needed to get home.  For those in attendance, it was a great time.  For those that weren't there, you missed a great show!
