I hope you all managed to survive April Fool’s Day.  I, apparently, am the easiest person in the world to fool when it comes to the jokes, as well.  If you tell me anything, evidently I am going to believe it.  So, this is April and it is raining here in Chicago.  They say April showers bring May flower, but I would just prefer it not rain, thank you very much and I’ll water the flowers with a hose.

So, there isn’t much in the way of blues shows this weekend, apparently.  Radio station WDCB provided the information below and it’s all jazz.  This doesn’t particuarly bother me, as you might guess.
