Jon Arckey

Back once again, courtesy of the Red Line, to rip on some heavy guitar and vocals.

Talent

Jimmy Peters

Jimmy just lives to play music, and his enthusiasm is contagious.

Talent

Tom Sweeney

Tom said this was his first open mic, but you'd never have known it. He's a natural performer who puts his heart and soul into it and has a wide range of tunes at his disposal. He also travels with an entourage, which makes me jealous.

Talent

Jon Arckey

Jon, a Berklee student, delivered some intense originals and covers. He took the red line to Quincy Center to get here. How's that for dedication?

Talent

Chris Morrill

Chris continues on his mission from God. If you haven't heard him sing Price's "Kiss," well—you haven't heard anything.

Talent

Branson Bofat

Branson comes around every once in a while, and it's always a treat to hear his expert fingerpicking. This is one cool dude, and he always shows up with cool guitars.

Talent

Marty Metz

Marty came back to grace us with more country blues by the likes of Reverend Gary Davis. It's all the stuff I'd play if I had the discipline. This guy can pick with the best.

Talent

Al Wilcutt

First time here for Al. He did some great original songs, one of them a touching tribute to his grandson—beautiful stuff. And since I failed to get a photo of him, what's to stop me from stealing one from Al's web site?

Talent

Britney Spears

Not only did Britney manage to shoehorn a troupe of leather-clad dancers onto Paddy Barry's stage, she proved once again to be on the cutting edge of youthful rebellion via her artful use of pelvic gyrations.
