Stillwater, Oklahoma

A grim night. We drove in just as it was starting to sleet. The weather threatened a nasty ice storm all night long, though it never materialized. Stillwater is where Oklahoma State University is located, and one of the basketball team’s plane crashed on the way back from Colorado that night, killing several people. Nevertheless, we played three relatively brief sets, including a blues jam with a local character named “Watermelon Slim” on harmonica and vocals. We played some blues at our Muddy Waters show in November, as well. Could this be a new direction for Magpu? Prog-blues? Stay tuned…
