    I was about to inform how absurd of a statement that is, but I'm gonna assume you actually meant Northern California/San Fran as opposed to California in general.

    Cause he's been all the fuck over LA.

    Interesting lineup. Not good, interesting. kd Lang, Lucinda Williams, FLips, & Gary Clark, Jr are all great choices. Neil Young & CH (obviously). The rest ... meh

    ...


    Not much of a Jack White fan, nor do I give a shit about Steve Martin playing banjo. kd Lang is the real one to watch in all this. Staggeringly good singer.

It's all so obvious.

    Nope. Listen to her early country records, she can really, really sing. Everyone seems to get caught up in her image and her turn towards adult contemporary shit in recent years. She's fucking good.

    There are many fine banjo players I don't give a shit about. Steve Martin happens to be one of them.

    This was my first thought as well. Hoping maybe he adds a Friday night show somewhere in the Bay Area.
