Good evening. Early afternoon I visited a local micro brewery - Harriet Brewing Co, for draft beer and some music. Lightweight wool/silk cap was my headgear. Be it a Dark Abbey or Occulist (Dopelboch) the cap was perfect. Beer matters!

Grand Old Days and then Mpls. Farmer's Market in a Gannon (light weight silver belly felt) fedora. Vegtables matter! An early dinner at a local cafe and then on to the main music show.

This evening I went out to listen to Catfish Keith, http://www.catfishkeith.com/index.html . I sat in the audience and visited with Dakota Dave Hull ( http://dakotadavehull.com ) , Phil Heywood ( http://www.philheywood.com ), Matt Fox ( http://www.mattfoxmusic.com ) and Lonesome Dan Kase ( http://www.lonesomedan.com ). World Class acoustic blues musicians listening to a truly class act - Catfish Keith. Bo Carter, Clifton Cheiner, Blind Johnson, Buddy Guy, Townsend, Edwards, Spence, and Leadbelly are all artists included in his huge song lists. Great music.

Catfish Keith's hat sat so he did not perspire too much in it. ( Vtg. Dobbs)

Cool weather jamming (outside on the patio) had me switch to a cap.

I have the blues tonight!

Wishing all the best, Eric -

I like the cap, the beer, and the fact there's a banjo guy on stage. It couldn't get any better :)

Had a nice meeting and lunch with Steve today. Seeing the new Czech find was a real treat; some true treasures in that bunch. The European felt is so nicely pounced and finished, it must be actually held and viewed with the naked eye to really be appreciated. It was a pleasure to visit Steve again, and hopefully, we will do it again soon. Any of you fellas fancy a DC road trip? No pics of us wearing hats, but I did snap this shot of the Czech hats laid out. Thanks for your hospitality Steve! Very much appreciated. Next time, lunch is on me.
