It?s a lot of fun for everyone who plays and everyone who comes to watch. People really get into it. Last year?s Town Hall team dressed in St. Patrick?s Day garb, while the year before they brought us out of the winter blues with a Hawaiian dress theme, complete with leis. You forget the fact that it?s a fund-raiser.

It has nothing to do with whether I'm the best or whether I'm a rock and roller or whether I'm a blues singer or whether I'm none of those things. I'm part of history.

For me, August Wilson is the person who made it appear that I had a place in the American theater. For the first time, I felt I actually saw characters that I knew, that spoke my language and had my stories and could express them in the riffs of blues and jazz.

The Clash did a song. Nick Cave did a song. All these blues figures have done songs about him. It's kind of interesting that this man was a nobody.

Danny Cox is a well-known name in Kansas among lovers of blues and jazz. His guitar playing is fluid and his singing is robust. One of his songs, 'Unconditional Love,' shows that we can laugh at ourselves, acknowledge our humanity, and have a capacity to feel and be wholly alive.

I have to figure out a way to show how raunchy blues music can be a religious experience.

I'm really excited about that. We'll be taking over the restaurant and the bar. It's going to be a party place with blues bands from time to time and barbecue on the deck or under the pavilion in the summer.

From the get-go, my musical influences come from hip pop, popular stuff. And then I backtracked into the blues, jazz and classical. I always had a pop sensibility. I mean I'm making records to sell em!

I try not to keep in mind what's going on currently in music. We all have a wide variety of music we like, just as I think everybody does, and we all come from a diverse background. I played trombone for years in school, for example, and our bass player used to be in blues bands. I just try to keep in my mind what I think is good music. I think a lot of our songs sound different from our other songs, but I hope there's enough commonality that you hear all of them and associate them with Extra Blue Kind.

It was kind of tongue-in-cheek, a goof-off to surprise our parents,.. But we couldn't play it. It became a challenge. You could compare it to country blues, or bluegrass - there's a tradition of form, a high standard of musicianship. That really attracted us.

You could kind of tell Leonard Maltin didn't seem pleased that Britney's name was mentioned in the same company as William Friedkin's,.. As I left the stage, Maltin said: 'You might want to bundle up all three volumes of your blues series and send them over to Britney and Kevin' (Federline, her husband). The audience found it very amusing.
