This will be amazing! I saw Johnny Sansone with Tab Benoit a couple years ago at Bluestock on Hunter Mtn, Trombone Shorty was the headliner.

I played the Dirty Bourbon River Show's 2nd Line on the show last Friday - and WQFS DJ David Wright called in. He was on the beach in North Carolina with a bourbon "go-cup" and tuned in!

(Lots of great stuff from New Orleans on his playlists!)
