Last Day At SXSW

Red River Blues

So first we headed out to Opa’s for a cool live radio show with Big Kev and Rick Star.

Yep, this is the place...

My set list:

Jorma Kaukonen 22 , 2015
Solo
Radio Show at OPA
OPA’s 6th Annual Radiothon
With Big Kev & Rick Star
Austin, Texas
Wednesday, March 18, 2015

1. Nobody Knows You When You’re Down & Out
2. Come Back Baby
3. Ain’t In No Hurry
4. The Terrible Operation
5. Where There’s Two There’s Trouble
6. Candy Man
7. That’ll Never Happen No More

Settling in...

Then it was on to the Convention Center for the Jim Marshall panel with Joel Selvin, Jay Blakesberg, Amelia Davis and myself.

Jim was quite a guy… irascible… mercurial… unpredictable… but at the end of the day, one of America’s great photographic artists… and, my friend. I wish I had kept in touch more, but you know how that goes.

Jay, Joel, Jorma... what an unholy trio!

Joel, Jorma, Amelia and Jay

Yeah, it was an honor to be a part of this one… Rest in peace brother Jim. You’re gone, but not forgotten buddy!

Yep, it's Austin

Then Cash and Myron and I headed over to El Mercado for a yummy dinner.

Where's Anthony Perkins?

Yesterday was Myron’s 40th birthday… Christine got him a cake… we at it today. Happy B’day Myron!

He'll huff and he'll puff and...

Well… early, early flight tomorrow… gotta check in and get some sleep.

Good times in Austin! Thanks to Cash and Roger for their hospitality!
