Gleaning Facebook: Blues


A great time tonight hanging out with Duane & Charlotte Parsons at Eddie's Attic in Decatur, and listening to the live blues of Delta Moon. Fantastic guitars! The food and company at Twain's before the show was good too.
Now a little sleep before three performances of a Christmas cantata with the Trinity choir.
I'm a nut, but it was worth it.

Betty Smith Franklin Such a smart nut.

Howard Smith For those who have never been, Eddie's Attic is a wonderful small room live music venue and well worth a visit. And, I hope next time you go, you let me know.


Laurie Craw I worked until midnight and our cantata is today, too at CSUMC and I'm playing peenano, Terrell. Aren't we a little old to be burning the candle at both ends...still? Nah.
Anna Farless Taylor My dad wants to go to Eddies Attic so bad! Glad to hear a good revue from an actual person and not a faceless revue!


Steve Evans Oh I would have loved to be there - I haven't been to Eddie's Attic in years and I love the blues
Terrell Shaw Why, Betty, this nut has pulled some wool over your eyes! Howard, I'd enjoy that. Laurie, we have a mutual history of even longer nights than this. But 65 ain't 28 is it?!! Now I crash. Anna, Ol' Floyd would get kick out of Delta Moon, I'll bet. Steve, it's a pretty quick trip on a Sat'day evenin'. Check the schedule on their website. The lead singer/slide guitarist Tom Gray has a connection with Duane. Duane's Mom was the feller's favorite teacher up in northern Virginia. So it was neat to be with someone who knew Tom and Duane had a good time talking after the show with Tom's siblings who were in attendance and also knew Duane's Mom.
Linda Floyd Blackwell Enjoyed the Christmas Cantata. I am so thankful you are back in choir after your hiatus for a few years. I enjoy your beautiful voice.
Duane Parsons
Eddie’s Attic is a unique “listening room” in that even the date crowd, if there is one, shuts up and listens. A real treat in a small room that only holds about 160. As a member of the Atlanta Blues Society, I am aware of several blues venues. Have not been back under the new management, but Charlotte & I have tentative plans on venturing back to Darwin’s (roadhouse atmosphere) in Marietta on Saturday night to see Sean Culberson.
