Hey there sweet family,
How are you doing this fine middle of the week morning?
We’re in a great mood because it’s just 2 days (or “2 more sleeps” as our dear sister Karen says! 🙂 ) before we leave for Gadsden, AL and The Hittin’ The Web Family of Bands Shows at the Second Street Music Hall.
What’s particularly joyous about this event (other than, gee, they’ve got great lineage 😉 ) is that the artists involved are getting together for the love of music and the extended family. They’re coming from all over the country, bringin’ it home to Alabama for you.

As if getting a chance to see Oteil up close and personal at the Hittin’ The Web Family of Bands Shows wasn’t cool enough, bass players have the chance to spend four days with Oteil learning his groovy funk/jazz/jam bass styles at the Jorma Kaukonen’s Fur Peace Ranch, June 2 – 5.
