Sorry, I'm not commenting on David Starr, or Space Kitten (sorry I missed that!), but on OPEN MIKE (April 7):

MARTIN SELBY is so very good! He announced that he had just begun to accommodate slide guitar, and his RJohnson: CrossRoads was spot on. Really -- convincing guitar and vocals to boot.

TREVOR HALL -- with another hand-made guitar? quite a versatile artist. He plays quite well and sings with intensity and conviction.

JOYA (might get last name, if any, one of these daze): alone on the stage with her guitar -- she quite capably "carries" each song and takes the listener along for the ride, or trip down the river, whatever. I suspect we'll say "we knew her when" one of these days.

Many people thought RON did quite good with the sound ~

Open Mike, April 14:

AMANDA is always a "Joy" (that's her middle name) to listen to. The Cavalcade is frequented by more than just a few good vocalists -- each with unique characteristics. Just as Erika B expresses angst and yearning (and more), Amanda conveys a genuine-sincere-bright-wholesomeness (in spite of the lyrics about being "a filthy sinner" and at her worst she's "mis-understood"). This cheapskate amateur reviewer would gladly PAY to hear her in a club ...

TIM & (I think) CHRISTY did dueling fiddles, culminating with Bach's Concerto for Two Violins (in D-minor, no less). Quite a singularly unique experience.

TREVOR (Hall) played two originals -- "guess which one was sad and which was upbeat & happy" -- then ending with what I felt was "a notch above" -- (can't and don't remember the song title). I would hire him to be lead guitarist for my band ~

We felt that RON was good on sound. & thanks to THAD & JARED for being the hosts.
