Threadhead Party with George Porter, Anders Osborne, Billy luso & Eric Bolivar 

Marc Millman on May 4, 2012 


The 8th Annual Threadhead Party took place at The Old Ironworks on Tuesday afternoon. Bands from the 
lineup included Flowtribe, G.A.B.E. & Irma Thomas. 

G.A.B.E. is the acronym for George Porter, Anders Osborne, Billy luso 8c Eric Bolivar. The band played a 90 
minute set that included Grateful Dead staples â€œSugareeâ€ and â€œFraklinâ€™s Tower.â€ Billy luso Kicked off The 
Meters â€œLove Slips Up On Yaâ€ and shared the verses with George. A raging version of Neil Youngâ€™s â€œDown 
By The Riverâ€ featured a blistering solo from Anders that truly showed how amazingly he channels Youngâ€™s 
vibe. 

The final act of the night was Soul legend Irma Thomas who was joined onstage by Dr. John. 

The Threadheads should be commended for keeping this tradition going. For only $75 one can enjoy an 
afternoon and early evening of great live music, eat all the crawfish and gumbo you can stuff yourself wiht 
as well as alll the beer, wine, soda and water one wants. And the money goes to help get local musicians 
recorded
