The infamous Radio City stint at which maybe 20% of the audience bothered to show up for Pokey's set each night.
Yep. The rude jackasses.

What happens if you come to the show from out if town? I'm assuming the Black and Blues take a while to cut. If you don't live there, will they mail it to you or do they only give them out in store? Thanks.

They will mail it, but you have to pay extra.

For a guy who seemed to really enjoy himself in Toronto for two nights, it's pretty disappointing to only see he's playing BC.
The Washington DC show will be at the Birchmere in Alexandria VA with Luke Winslow King opening.

^^ Has that been confirmed? It wasn't on the Birchmere calendar a few days ago.

Seems like his given name is no longer a secret . . .

Just today I think. It's on Pokey's site as well now and on Ticketmaster (on sale Friday at Noon).

Ah, thanks for the heads up about the Birchmere show being on Ticketmaster!

Unfortunately, I've been inundated by new old music lately and haven't had the chance to dig into Pokey's past. But I have gotten into some of Ryan's side stuff-- http://lonesomecowboyryan.bandcamp.com/ and http://lonesomecowboyryan.bandcamp.com/.

I was searching something about him and there's an NPR/St. Louis article/interview that states his given name. It's also now in his Wiki.

Funny thing is, I always thought it was something else! I guess the "something else" was a ruse!

If you post it here for any reason, could you use the spoiler option? I like not knowing.
