It was dusk on a June day when three friends and I stumbled from\na road-fatigued Jeep Cherokee into the first bar we could find in Kelowna, B.C.\n\nWe were far from our Calgary homes and wanted little more than several beers, some passable grub and - hope beyond hope after noticing the bathroom-sized stage - music that wouldn\u2019t make us bolt for the door and the comfort of the truck stereo.\n\nWe chugged our chilled beer, wolfed platefuls of authentic Cajun and the four of us didn\u2019t hit the exit until the end of what turned\nout to be a magical night in The Blue Gator bar - where we were totally and utterly blown away by Dogskin Suit.\n\nI\u2019ve been to dozens of Blues bars across the continent and applauded scads of good bands, but never have I heard\nanything that compares with what Dogskin did to, and\nfor, the audience that night.\n\n\n\n\n\nAffordable Podcasting $5.99 a month includes Web Hosting\n\nSuppport The Classic Blues at Music Maker\n\n\nVisit The Uncle Shag Today\n\n\nBuy Your 50 mp3 classic radio shows for $5.00 inclues shipping\n\nPoppa Dwag Blues
