TICKETS + INFORMATION
Four nights of guitar and nothing but, in many many styles. Nobody could like all of it — but List habitués are encouraged to take note of Gyan Riley, Vernon Reid, and Bill Frisell.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: I have never been able to get into the otherwise inviting Basque restaurant Haizea. If you can, please tell me about it. Streaming at home, have a Horse’s Neck (or three): cut the longest lemon spiral you can. Put it in a tall glass (Collins or Highball) letting the tip hang over the rim to secure it, so it coils down around the inside of the glass. That is the ONLY hard part. Fill the glass with ice. Pour in 2 oz. Bourbon. Top with Ginger Ale. Shake in 2, maybe 3 if you’re feeling exuberent, dashes of Angostura bitters. Stir (OK, you have to avoid disturbing the coiled spiral — that’s a SECOND hard part).
