Scheve Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 [color:green]Cincinnati Records Proudly Presents Starting August 9th Every Thursday in August 8PM || $5 || 19+ (Limited all-ages) || CASBAH LOUNGE, 306 King St W || 905-521-4441 LUKE DOUCET Luke Doucet masterfully effects wonder in the familiar and familiarizes the foreign. Coming together with his band like a zipper closing, he features just as many artists as there are teeth in a Levi's fly. That guy must be the lost love bastard of kd lang and Tom Waits. – Canadian Press Luke Doucet has developed a distinct musical style that effectively transfuses the rootsy styles of the past with emotional stresses of the modern urban lifestyle... the playful jazz-based Cajun music , the hybrid sound of Old 97’s take on the country rock genre, the urban wit of early Lowest Of The Low and the vocal style of the Jazz Age crooners. – Chart Magazine WEB LINKS: http://www.lukedoucet.com/ http://radio3.cbc.ca/bands/LUKE-DOUCET http://www.sixshooterrecords.com/six_site/artists/art_ld4.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodRev Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I'm sitting in with the headliner in the main room tonight, but I'll be ducking into the lounge every chance I get. Doucet rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevO Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I'm sitting in with the headliner in the main room tonightWith Drew Smith? Cool, I will come by and check it out. If I pay cover in one room does that give me access to the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I pay cover in one room does that give me access to the other?[/quote']Yes sir, Drew Smith. Only playing three or four songs. I'm not sure how they're working the cover...but I think usually if you pay the cover in the main room you're allowed down into the lounge, but not vice versa. Maybe Brodie can advise.Kevo I think we've met once or twice, eh? If you see a scruffy dude in the company of a case that looks like it holds a pedal steel, come say hi in case I don't recognize you.

DevO Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Luke Doucet played mostly new stuff last night to a crowd of 10 people max. Folsom Prison > I'm On Fire cover at the end was fun. Encore was a great bluesy number that was a tribute to Rick Danko and the bassman in general. (opening lyrics something like "I was in Woodstock the day Rick Danko died"). My one suggestion for these nights is the lighting.. Couldn't really see Luke! Maybe swing one of those pot lights on the ceilings around so its pointing towards the band's area. Great to see the Rev on the pedal steel next door too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
