Jeff Mitchell’s Lonesome Gallery

Hi all,

So the JACKSON STREET POLECATS, world famous JUG BAND and EXPERT MUSICIANS, will be playing this very weekend in the Fox Valley. “Where?”, you might ask. “When?!”. “Why?!!!!”. I will answer you…

POLECATS establish musical domination…

FRI. JULY 21 (8pm? / 21+)
(Jeff, Baer, and Nate / full-on show)
Cranky Pat’s
Oshkosh, WI
for free!

SUN. JULY 23 (9pm but come early to hear other performers)
(Jeff and Baer / guest slot at open-mic)
Rock Island Coffee
Neenah, WI
also free!

So, the other thing…

The Willis, The Poles, Happy, and Self-Evident
DOUBLEPLUSGOOD SHOWCASE (21+)
SAT. JULY 22 (8? 9?)
Peabody’s Ale House
Neither me nor the Polecats are playing this show but I guarantee you it will rock very much. If you like to rock, this will be for you. For sure. Bring your earplugs! See you there…

That’s all for now. For more shows, check out the “schedule” on my website at http://lonesomegallery.com/

take care, Jeff

Hi All,

It’s been a little while. I’ve missed you.

First off, two big shows in the Fox Valley…

JACKSON STREET POLECATS!
Friday, March 24th / 5:00pm
Wheel and Sprocket (bike store)
Oshkosh, WI
This is a big party for Wheel and Sprocket bikes. They wanted to hire the Polecats and we said “heck yes!” We’re going to play all-acoustic for this. I mean no amplification whatsoever. Should be lots of fun. If you want to hear the Polecats all stripped down, I highly recommend this.

ANDREW JOHNSON CD RELEASE
Sat, March 25th / 8:00pm / 21+
Mainstream Music Building
Oshkosh, WI
I’ll be playing a solo set at Andrew(of Happy)’s release party for his new solo project, Holly and Plastic. There will be scads of great performers including Andrew (of course), Jeff from the Catastrophe, Jeremy from Ripp Winkler, Aaron Baer (Polecats), Steve Mccabe and Erik Van Thiel (the Willis), Steve Trier, Southerly, Mike Siddall, and more. This is a party. A BYO party. There’s going to be vegetarian chili and Andy’s CDs. Go to http://www.doubleplusgoodrecords.com/ to hear Andrew’s song, “This Particular Giant Today”.

So there’s that and then also there is that recording and mixing on my new CD, “Batteries and Blankets” is now complete. Steve Mccabe and Mark Powers turned in some wonderful performances on the disc, which was recorded at Topsoil in Oshkosh by Smart Studios’ Justin Perkins. I’ll be posting MP3s from the record really soon and am booking shows for the Midwest release tour in April and NW USA tour in May. I’ll send more complete details later but the shows so far are…

April 21/New Moon/Oshkosh, WI
April 22/Acoustic Cafe’/Menomonie, WI
April 28/Sabor Latino/Decorah, IA

Thanks so much to all of you. Can’t wait to see you on the road.
All the best, Jeff
