JOHN NEMETH at the Midway Tavern


Last night in Mishawaka it was 3 degrees outside...but our friend John Nemeth sure warmed things up inside the Midway.  He was a little late arriving from Memphis (it's amazing that he made it at all considering the weather).  John brought along Travis Swanson, Matthew Wilson and Danny Banks.  Just like we expected....it was a FANTASTIC SHOW.  It was the first time Sheila did't get to go because of a recent surgery (she's doing GREAT!).  But, my friend Ed Berry was there with me.  There was a full house....jumping and jiving.

As you might know, 2014's number one selling blues album was John's "Memphis Grease" and he won the title "Soul Blues Male Artist of the Year."

This year will be even better.  He's been nominated by the Blues MusicFoundation for:
          Album of the Year   "Memphis Grease"
          Song of the year "Bad Luck is My Name" written & performed by John Nemeth
          Soul Blues Album of the Year   "Memphis Grease"
          Soul Blues Male Artist of the Year 
          Band of the Year  "John Nemeth and the Bo-Keys"
And the one he deserves most....B. B. KING ENTERTAINER of the YEAR
GOOD LUCK JOHN!

He's a fantastic entertainer and a great guy....and doting Father.  He has a young son named Otis.....I made him this plaque.



I THINK HE LIKED IT!

YES...I made that sign, too!

When we met him 5-6 years ago...we knew he was heading for the top...HE MADE IT!
If you get a chance to see him and his great band...DON'T MISS IT!
