Mike Porco and Gerde's Folk City inducted into NY Blues Hall of Fame

MAY 31, 2015

Legendary Folk and Blues club

Gerde's Folk City and its legendary owner

Mike Porco

were inducted into the New York Blues Hall of Fame

along with

Richard Manuel, Garth Hudson, Dave Van Ronk, Hubert Sumlin, Erik Frandsen, Garland Jeffreys

and a host of others in a star-studded ceremony and concert

at BB King's Blues Club on 42nd Street, NYC.

The things I forgot to say:
I'd have to live 811 years to catch Mike Porco in shows.
Folk City had personality. That person was Mike Porco.
