OK, so I came down with the community croup from kissing babies and shaking hands at the Music Fog Marathon, and I have been mostly holed up trying to recuperate since then. Last night, driving home from my Threadgill’s gig, I stopped at a stop sign at the corner. I guess I was waiting for the light to change, except there wasn’t one, which became evident to me when people started honking. Yikes! I raced to the next corner, and there WAS a red light at that one, where I again sat, feeling embarrassed as the honking cars tailed me there. See you at the next light...that is the name of the most recent Emory Quinn album.
We welcomed EQ back in front of our cameras for the full Music Fog treatment. We have encountered them twice before. Once was at MusicFest at Steamboat in 2009, and we saw them again at the "Black Tie and Boots" Texas State Society Inaugural Presidential Ball. (A footnote, I have now been to two of those soirees, and they are a blast. Evening clothes and cowboy boots are my idea of heaven...) Anyway, I figured it was time for a return visit, as EQ stays busy gigging and turning out albums. The guys drove up to our Music Fog Marathon at Threadgill’s WHQ last week from San Antonio and got busy. Clint Bracher, Nathan Rigney, Case Bell, and Erik Frankson visited the 2012 Music Fog Marathon on day one, and plugged in to play one of the songs from See You At The Next Light, “Holes Through the Windows.”
