----/ The Squid List /-------------------------------------------------- Jason Webley - solo
Sunday, October 2nd 8pm $5-10 sliding scale ----/ Event Description /----------------------------------------------- This show is an entire night with Seattle's Jason Webley. Webley appears like a back alley prophet in layers of baggy clothes, a trench coat and an old porkpie hat; he leaps onto stages, window ledges and bartops, feverishly pumping the bellows of his accordion and stomping out the beat while roaring and whispering in his passionate, gravelly baritone. His music - a mix of gypsy, folk and punk - traverses age and social background, drawing grandparents, children, punks, drunks, and lovers into the fold. He likes to sing about death, carousing, and vegetables. He recently released a much- awaited new album, Only Just Beginning, and his performances always include a mixture of old and new songs, entertaining anecdotes, and innovative sociological experiments. An exceptionally charismatic performer and talented musician, Webley is also unpretentious and appreciative of his audience's attempts at witty banter, so much so that he will humor requests for Cyndi Lauper songs. Just don't ask him to play Christmas Carols. http://www.jasonwebley.com ----/ Venue Info /------------------------------------------------------ 21 Grand 416 25th St. (at Broadway) Oakland 510-444-7263 http://www.21grand.org http://www.21grand.org/map.html ----/ Additional Info /------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----/ The Squid List Admin /--------------------------------------------- The Squid List, a tentacle of Laughing Squid http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/ subscribe, unsubscribe, change your email address or change your subscription options: http://lists.laughingsquid.org/mailman/listinfo/squidlist/ Frequently Asked Questions & Submission Guidelines Squid List FAQ: http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/faq.html The Squid List Online Calendar: http://laughingsquid.org/squidlist/calendar/ The Squid List RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/squidlist ----/ Laughing Squid /-------------------------------------------------- Laughing Squid http://laughingsquid.com underground art and culture from San Francisco and beyond Laughing Squid Web Hosting http://laughingsquid.net friendly, dependable and secure web hosting services for artists, individuals, bloggers, non-profits and small businesses Copyright (c) 2005 Laughing Squid.
