(Clarksdale, Mississippi) VIDEO IN POST
Ground Zero Blues Club employees celebrated the holidays at Ground Zero Blues Club in Clarksdale, MS. A good time was had by all on that Monday, December 13th which happened to be the 1st wedding anniversary of Delta Bohemians Madge Marley Howell and Billy Howell, aka Poor William. Madge wore her
wedding dress to the festive event. EY, local semi-fixture, attended the event as a guest of Walt’s. In addition, at the end I have posted another short video of a GZBC employee also enjoying herself with a quick dance move.

Poor William,
Have you ever thought of starting a list of those Delta Bohemians who make or have made the Delta such a colorful place?
You could start with Tennessee Wiilliams. I would also think McCarty, Semmes Luckett, Jimmy Pambianchi (lead singer of The Reets), Semmes Luckett, Jane Rule Burdine, Martha Foose, Bob Bailey, Jim Dees (from Leland, host of Thacker Mountain Radio), the late Charlie Jacobs (lead singer of the Tangents), Mose Allison, Duff Dorrough, Khoury (the artist from Greenville), the Alexander family, Shelby Foote, Jimbo Mathus, Maude Schuyler Clay, Richard Ragan, etc. The list could go on forever…
Sparky, what a great idea! Let’s toss it out there and see who our readers think should be added to your most excellent list! ????
Love your video of dancing pirate wench! I notice toward end, she is manipulating cell phone…probably trying to phone me to dance with!! Tell her to be patient, I’ll be there shortly!
Haha. I never noticed the texting while dancing aspect! See ya soon!
