Issue 42 — March, 2022
From out of the dark of night a touring wagon pulls up. From it, a man emerges with a guitar case and a small duffel bag. From the case he pulls a guitar and from the duffel he pulls a microphone and a cable. Johnny Cash once called him "sanguine", and he rarely said that about anybody. He can cook his meal on your stove. Cicadas cease their song when he enters the out-of-doors. He quiets rumors with a patient stare. His songs, while not able to fully cure gout, are known to provide effective treatment. He is the one who changed the spelling of the word subtle to include the "b". He is Mark Zeus, and he is coming to a gig near you.

This will be our second time playing at
the Mystic Rogue which can only mean one thing: we still may
not have worked off our bar tab from the first time. This is a
place with delicious authentically Irish items on the menu, a
friendly staff waiting to serve you, and its right around the
corner from your place if you happen to live in the Norwood
Park area, and, let"s be honest, who doesn"t? Come play stump
the band by asking us to solve quadratic equations.
OK, perhaps everyone who"s anyone does not necessarily live in the Norwood Park area. So, to accommodate those who do not, our booking agent Murray at Work Song Productions got us a date at Finnegan"s Pub out in Dyer, Indiana. Definitely visit us out that way for an evening of song, but also make sure to stop by and visit the Monument to the Most Ideal Section of Lincoln Highway. Back in 1923, Dyer featured the world's most advanced section of highway as judged by the U.S. Rubber Company and the esteemed Portland Cement Association, the foremost scholars of this sort of thing at the time. Does your Maserati do 185? Good, then it won"t take you long to get there.
...And there you have it. Grab your waiter and jot these dates down on his order pad. Only highly select clientele are privy to the inside skinny of dates like this, and you are special because you are you. We certainly hope to see you out Where and When we can.
