E-mail: [email protected] February 2011 Capital Blues Messenger January Was a Cold Month - Unless You Were Partying To The Blues Cold temperatures, snow, and ice do not deter some Blues fans, as was evident at two January 2011 events that were promoted by the DC Blues Society. On Thursday, January 20, the Surf Club Live, in Hyattsville, MD, was the place to be, as fans and a lineup of performers crowded this venue for the Fundraiser to send Anthony ―Swamp Dog‖ Clark and the Blues Allstars to the 2011 International Blues Challenge (IBC) in Mem- phis. In addition to the Blues Allstars, the lineup included Clarence ―The Blues Man‖ Turner Band, Stacy Brooks, and the DC Blues Society Band. Anthony sent an eblast with the following Thank You: I would like to thank everyone that came to the Surf Club last night. Because of you it was a great success. We had great bands and outstanding performances. I want to send a Big, Big thank you to John for doing the sound. I can not thank him and his crew enough. Without him, this would never have gotten off the ground. I also want to thank the DC Blues Society for their support in this effort. Photos top row from left: Ken Sparks and Anthony “Swamp Dog” Clark, Glenn Alexander, Charles “Reds” Adkins; bottom row from left: “Swamp Dog” and Stephane Themeze, and some of DCBS’s very loyal blues fans. Photos by Jazs. On Saturday, January 29, the Silver Spring American Legion was the site of a Good Bye Party for Stephane Themeze, harp player for the Clarence ―The Bluesman‖ Turner Band. (Stephane is in photo below, with Sean Graves in the background, and the full Band appears in the sec- ond photo: Sam‘i Nuriddin (DCBS President), Clarence Turner, Stephane, Sean Graves, and David Satterwhite (front row)). Stephane will be returning home to France. During his stay in the US and the DC area, it is clear that he has devel- oped a following of friends and fans who welcomed the opportunity for one more blues party with this wonderful guy. Stephane leaves for France sometime after performing with the Band at the IBC in Memphis (see p 4).

Having played the instru- ment for, then, almost two decades, I thought that a novelist would not, could not, feature specialty instruments such as the C-melody sax if he did not play the horn himself. Once the saxophone had caught my attention, I noticed all sorts of uncommon references that seemed to confirm my hunch that Thomas Pynchon himself played the instrument: McClintic Sphere’s 4½ reed, the contra- bass sax of Against the Day, Gravity’s Rainbow’s Charlie Parker passage.
