Trick or Treat, Cousins.

 

Won't be long til our front door will be assailed by all sorts of little boogers and varmints, begging candy, and dressed in the most outlandish garb, looking like miniature vampires and fairies and hillbilly singers. The Harvest has come, and there's a nip in the air.

 

It's a good time to Fall up into Douglas Corner on Monday, October 18 at 8 PM for our latest All Points South, the little show with big ideas. In keeping with our history of bringing you, our good neighbors, great singer/songwriters in live performance, this week we'll feast on the work of two of Music City's most talented, yet least heralded masters.

 

From up on the North side of Carolina, Milan Miller brings his thoughtful tales of life between the Outer Banks and the Blue Ridge, and points west, to the stage -- along with his incredible guitar skills and bell tenor voice. Check out his Songs From...CD series, and his exquisite collaboration with Glenn Simmons -- In A Perfect World, that appears on Jon Byrd's Byrd'sAuto Parts CD.

 

And in the anchor slot -- sultry and soulful Pamela Jackson will offer her finely-crafted tunes -- laden with barbed hooks and emotion, informed by the entire spectrum of modern popular music. She recently released her debut CD, Stripped, and has had several tunes appear on works by other artists as well. Her intimate, confessional delivery stands in contrast to the complexities of her art -- a fabulous songwriter.

 

These artists will be worth hearing for you song lovers. It'll only cost you $5.

 

Pamela will also host an ITR on Saturday, October 23 @ 6 PM with the most brilliant Annie Mosher in one chair, the lovely and lovelier Don Kerce in another on lead bass gu-tar, and some red-headed cat with a song about a dog. It's free, as is Becky Becker's __th Birthday Bash the following Monday. So we're just wallowing down at Douglas for an entire week. Y'all join us.

 

Thanks to Mark Guitar Robinson, certified K.o.M, for including us on his Showband and Rhythm Revue performance at Pope's Pace on Saturday night. It was a maximum blast.

 

We'll be looking for you tomorrow. And don't give us no excuses. You know you've got nothing better to do on Monday night.
