Thanks to Friend of OffBeat Clint Maedgen for getting up this morning to appear on WWL-TV’s morning show with Jan to hype Saturday night’s Best of the Beat at the House of Blues. I also appreciate Maedgen for playing the Best of the Beat because the New Orleans Bingo! Show is also playing the second night of a two-night stand at Le Chat Noir the same night. They’ll start our show at 7:30 and go straight from there to Le Chat for their show. 

Since I set my machine to tape the WWL appearance this morning, I haven’t seen and don’t know if there was any mention of Maedgen’s Thursday night show at Le Chat Noir – Clint Maedgen with Strings. If there was, then the show just got hyped for the second time. Besides working on these projects, he’s also recording his first album with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band as its full-time clarinet player this month.
