      What a great show. I only learned about Kirk a few months ago and he is already one of my favorite guitar players. From his interviews he seems like a great person with a multitude of good qualities.

    For the skill Kirk has, he has very little ego and no need to be in spotlight every time. It is so nice to listen to that type of laid back blues

    Yah, Kirk just keeps setting the bar higher and higher. The whole band is just stellar. When I hear people complaining about how life isn't fair, I think of musicians like these, where there is such a tremendous disparity of their worth and what they are actually paid. These guys should all be millionaires, what with all of their talent, hard work, chops and dedication, etc. In these days of high tech, why cannot we lovers of good music contribute/donate to a website, from anywhere in the world, where the money goes directly TO musicians such as these? Bypass all the middle money grubber's, etc? It just does not get any better than this, IMHO. But then again, Kirk keeps surprising myself and all of my music lover friends. Fantastic stuff. As a player, this is a lifetimes worth of lessons! Thanks so much!!!!!

      2 years later, I just came here after watching a video with Brett Papa interviewing him. He mentioned a go fund me page to support his upcoming Album... I won't link because it would probably be mistaken as spam by filters, but it's a chance to do just what you mentioned.
      As this is in the top of the comments, others might see it.
      These artists deserve support.

    Man, this is just what a Working Club needs to hear and experience. Bringing the most awesome blues to ordinary people. I love that. Words get in the way of saying how much I resonate with this whole gig. Cudos to all the fine musicians, and Kirk himself. A true gentleman and amazing blues musician. This gig transcends even history in my school of thought. It's a complete blues education based on deep roots. Ancient spirits groove. Deepest respect and thanks. Great performances by the whole ensemble. Vibe intense. Hits me.

      The Semaphore Workers Club, one of the oldest and finest seaside buildings in South Australia, is owned by Communists. They use it for the occasional branch meeting. Twice a week the local blues scene moves in and it goes off. Very few Communists are actually ever seen at the club.
