    December 2011 Kilborn Alley Blues Band CD Release Party By Rich Cibelli What do you get when you cross one of the hottest local blues bands around just home from a great tour of Europe and a cold late November Tuesday night at The Iron Post in Urbana? Answer -- The Kilborn Alley Blues Band “Four” CD release party. The band, which actually returned the morning of the show, showed some signs of jet lag. But that didn’t stop them from putting on one of the best performances that this writer has seen. Blues fans, that is dedication from the heart -- a plain and simple fact. There is no way to teach this. You either have it or not. The Kilborn Alley Blues Band has it. Period! Andrew Duncanson and Abraham Johnson Courtesy Zack Widup Before I continue I’d like to take a minute and give a great big thank you to Paul Wirth and all the staff at the Iron Post for helping put on this event and for their continued support of live music in Champaign-Urbana. Most of all, a great thank you to the many fans who braved a cold Tuesday night to come see one of our own. I may have mentioned this in an earlier story, but for those of you new to the Prairie Crossroads Blues Society, The Kilborn Alley Blues Band was the first band to join our organization back almost a year and a half ago. Just like this event they took time from their show to thank us for the bond that we have.
