Can you believe this. Governor says to not travel. OK DPS, says not to travel. All the news channels reporting multiple accidents and to stay in. However, BOK and ACDC won't cancel. I have emailed and left messages with Mayor, Event Center, Tulsa World, yet no responses. Heres the latest weather report. I guess they don't read the part where it is very hazardous.

Lets face it, at $90 a ticket plus 12,000+ fans that equals over 1 million dollars gross they would have had to refund if they cancelled. They only have a week left on this tour before their overseas tour starts so rescheduling was not an option.

Barrelhouse Beat

Barrelhouse: A colloquialism describing the low saloons at the turn of the century (19th) that served whiskey straight out of the barrel. It's also a reference to the type of music played in those venues. Ex: Barrelhouse music.

Beat: The time or timing. Ex: The band played with a solid beat. Also used as a term describing a reporters specific area of expertise. Ex: The music beat.

About me: I'm Okie born and raised, and have lived all over the state: Oklahoma City, Enid, Moore, Norman, Edmond and Tulsa. I am a music geek, writer, graphic designer and amateur photographer and videographer who's followed the Tulsa and regional music scene since I moved to Green Country more than 10 years ago. I've been enmeshed in Tulsa's varied and vibrant musical night life, what some of us affectionately call a modernized throwback to the Barrelhouse scene, since that time. I fell in love with it. I fell hard.
