The band, Mojo Lemon, Volume One reports to be the Best Blues Band in the Chippewa Valley. For my part, I would have to agree. Strictly speaking, a real blues aficionado wouldn't consider most of what the band plays as blues. I, on the other hand, am willing to color outside of the lines where blues is concerned. They are having fun on stage. The music selection is great. I am having fun listening. It was a great night to be at the Snout Saloon.

The bar was full. I knew it before I hit the door. Central street was fully parked and the lot across the street nearly so. So no surprise when there was a wall of people just inside the door. The band was playing, and good times were being had by all. We were arriving late, having caught another show earlier in the night, Brian Bethke at the Acoustic Café. Naturally the band went out on break at the end of the song they were playing. My timing has always been lucky this way ...
