In 2004, Joseph "Shotgun" Williams was gunned down by New Orleans police officers. The true account of what transpired on that night will not be debated here.
However, on Sunday May 24, 2009 his memory will be celebrated at the Howlin Wolf New Orleans with the Joseph "Shotgun" Williams Birthday Bash. This is a Hot 8 Production, and will feature the music of the Hot 8 Brass Band, TBC Brass Band, The Free Agents, Shamarr Allen and the Under Dawgs, J. Scott, B.I.G Al, and Boss Man Superior.
This should be a great show, and a wonderful remembrance of a great New Orleans musician. Please make plans to attend.
Tickets can be purchased here. The show will be $12 and starts at 10pm (doors at 9).
Here's a little Hot 8 to get you interested:
