Another night of great music presented by The Michael Packer Blues Band as they return
to the Turning Point Cafe to entertain the crowd once again.

Having just played there in the end of November with Bob Poparozzi on harmonica & guest
vocals, this time around Mike brought Dave "Snakeman" Runyan to bring some fire to the show
and this guy brings his own bag of tricks with him musically speaking that is, Dave is no
rookie to the game with a vast repetoire of sounds on harp and rugged vocals he brings a
strong vibe to the show,having played with blues greats in the circuit like James Cotton
you'll know why he's a favorite.!


This show is typical of what the Michael Packer Blues Band is & does, bringing a good mix
of originals and some of the classic covers typical of a blues band, tonight's show had a
couple of blues numbers i haven't heard often like "You're The One" & "I Ain't Doin' Too Bad"
or "Need My Baby" & "Help Me" letting Dave "Snakeman" Runyan show off a bit.

All in all, another night of great blues performed by guys who love playing the blues, not for
money but for the feeling you get playing the blues.



Excellent performance and fantastic audience recording !



If you don't know the Michael Packer Blues Band or Dave "Snakeman" Runyan and like the blues
then you need to check these guys out by going to a show & buying a cd etc.
