["Todd Morman" <tmorman AT nc.rr.com>]

Eugene Chadbourne's doing two solo sets this Saturday at Marsh Woodwinds. 
Doors open at 7, show starts at 8. If you don't know him, he's a 
Greensboro-based jazz/punk/country/noise guitarist who's been active for 
over 30 years, played with John Zorn in the influential NYC improv scene of 
the 70s, in Shockabilly, with Billy Bragg, Violent Femmes, Red Clay 
Ramblers, etc. The show will be simulcast on the locally-based internet 
radio station taintradio.org and available as a podcast soon after.

etc.

The tweets, etc about his current European tour (we're getting him in 
between Liepzig and Istanbul) have been filled with words like "inspiring" 
and "amazing." He's unpredictable, so there's no telling what might turn up 
in the mix (I'm holding out hope for at least a little of his transcriptions 
of Bach for banjo), but that it'll be an anarchic, noisy, beautiful mix is a 
good bet.

It's BYOB. Marsh provides free food, too. $10 at the door.
