Steve Forbert
This evening we saw Steve Forbert at McGonigel’s Mucky Duck in Houston.
McGonigel’s is a neat Irish style pub with an excellent calendar of music. I’m glad to have happened onto it.
Steve Forbert is a folk/rock artist from the late 70s/early 80s, that has had a good long career recording and playing music. His story can be found in his Wikipedia article. Like so many artists, his career was interrupted by a dispute with his record company. I had two of his albums on vinyl, but lost touch with his music when we switched to CDs. As I told him afterwards, it’s good to re-connect.
McGonigels has a nice discounted rate with the local Courtyard by Marriott, and we’re staying here for both Friday and Saturday nights. I have some entertainments to choose from for tomorrow (Saturday) night, so it should be a good weekend.
