Nick Nice: Pod-a-licious

My only weekly gig is pretty much my favorite night to play as I get to play exactly what I want, no lame requests or annoying drunkies.

Every Sunday at Maduro we close the weekend out properly here in Madison. Maduro is special because in these puritan times it's the one last refuge where you can openly smoke a cigar AND have a cocktail at the same time. No cigarettes of course but pipe tobacco is ok too. I'm a non-smoker and it's so sad to me too see how all the global smoking bans in the name of workers 'health' are killing both pub culture & café culture. What good is health is everyone's out of work anyway??

So every Sunday I play a very eclectic set of music where people come together for good conversation, great cocktails and a friendly ambiance. Sometimes it turns into a spontaneous dance party but usually it's just a nice group of people enjoying some of life's simple pleasures.

I've been wanting to share a set from here for a while actually. So for those of you who can't make it down on a Sunday...light a fire, pour yourself a nice cocktail, smoke something tasty and enjoy...
