It’s a good night to be blue all over. Here are some musical considerations appropriate
to that theme. At 8 p.m. at the Arcata Playhouse, blues singer and returning champion Earl Thomas will be joined by red hot guitarist Anthony Cullins and assorted musicians to fill the joint with the searing blue flames of classic heart-born American music. The price to hear and see what that means in practice is $20.
Meanwhile, over at Humbrews an hour later, you can hear the prog-rock jam stylings of Chico’s Blü Egyptian, along with local openers Blue Rhythm Revue. The folks from
Chico have been on a more-or-less non-stop tour for the past few years, which has
done wonders to buttress their reputation as an act worth seeing in the crowded noodle market of jamsters and freewheeling boogie merchants ($15).
