The Shore Fire staff will be out in full force this Thursday supporting long-time SFM staffer Nick Loss-Eaton’s band Leland Sundries, who “is dedicated to storytelling in a way that recalls Woody Guthrie and his Folkways brethren” (NY Times), at their show at Pianos upstairs stage.

And in addition to these great shows below its worthy of noting that The Iridium will be hosting a “Midnight Jam for Japan” on both Friday, April 8 and Saturday, April 9. All proceeds from the door for the midnight shows will go to disaster relief efforts in Japan. Kudos to The Iridium for helping out!

Finn is guaranteed to deliver a wildly energetic show at Bell House on Saturday --- previewing songs from his forthcoming Yep Roc Records release, FOMO, due June 21.

Mac Makes it Into Rock Hall of Fame

March 15, 2011 By Mark Leave a Comment

Mac Rebennack, aka Dr. John, resplendent in purple, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last night by John Legend, a long and well deserved honor that got the house on its feet at the Waldorf Astoria.  Behind the scenes, Mac wanted to say hello to an old friend, Darlene Love, a fellow inductee. He shared a few words with the Doors’ John Densmore. I grabbed him, along with his manager Peter Himberger, for a second and got to hold his statuette for a photo. And I snapped a shot of Sherry Beth Mounce and James Lemkin, who both work with Mac and who were incredibly gracious and helpful throughout the night. Besides the thrill of getting to stand at Mac’s side during his press room functions, the next highlights of my evening were being within ten feet of Neil Young,  within inches of Bette Midler as she sashayed out of the press room, and running into our new client Garland Jeffreys, who I brought over to re-connect with Dr. John (Mac played and arranged on Garland’s 1973 hit Wild in The Streets).
