jkstraw Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Anyone in the Ottawa area know of a place that would be receptive to some solo acoustic/electric covers of the Dead/JGB repertoire? Would love to get out there and play some gigs but most places seem to be a real drag energy-wise.Thanks for any thoughts.....here's my stuff for some context:http://www.youtube.com/jkstrawpeace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Wish Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 You should definitely seek out The Carleton Tavern.There are lots of like minded folks in the neighborhood that would make the shows alot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hey now Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 o'connells on wellington just up from the carleton has open acoustic jam on sunday and open stage saturday with some very talented individuals in attendance. the musicians tend to outnumber the audience.would happily join in on althea if you graced the pubgot half step rider and baby blue in my rep down there and i would always like more dead. andy mason of four way street likes to spring the odd dead on people down there as well when were lucky enough to have him show up.tiny place but fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bONES Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 dude...great job on Mountains of the Moon! You remind me of Jeff Mattson, who also does an incredible job on this tune. Hope you don't mind me embedding this for others to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkstraw Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Thanks guys for the pointers. I'll defiantly be following up on both places. So hard to find a place with a vibe that lets these tunes shine. I've been playin' Hunter's "Book of Daniel" a lot lately (I call it my vocal whore tune) - wicked tune - but damn I bet you'd be hearing crickets and cicadas sing if I ever tried to pull that off! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
