Famous Daves, Minneapolis, MN


Played the blues jam at Famous Dave's in Minneapolis Sunday night for the first time. Great place for blues and BBQ. The place was packed even though there was a snowstorm going on outside. A well run jam by Moses Oakland......a sign up list and he kept things going by changing things up after only two songs per jammer. (I wished I could have played longer) The drum kit belonged to the venue and was fine as house kits go. I did notice the house drummer tuning it up before leaving the stage after the first set. Nice touch-thank you. I'll be back to play next time I'm in town.
