Our good friend Fox, the cameraman from the band MidStokke recently posted a short clip of a Dog Leg Preacher performance. This is Marcelo playing Little Wing at the Buffalo Chip on the Kinnison stage, rally week Sturgis South Dakota. DLP was playing in a thunderstorm and a complete downpour. the flashes you see are actually lightning strikes that were happening all around as the band was playing. What a crazy time.

Rocking at Waldo's

The show at Waldo's was a great time. We would like to thank our friends MidStokke for having us out, and congratulate our new friends Down North for putting on a great show. Captain Kurke did an incredible job filling in for Solomon Kane on bass. Solomon is expecting a new prognosis on Monday, so we expect to know then just how long he will be on injured reserve. Thanks to everyone who came out to see the show, it was a blast.

Dog Leg Preacher prepares conflagration for Waldo's

This coming Friday night October Twenty Fourth. Dog Leg Preacher will again be sharing a stage with Seattle Rock Heroes MidStokke, in a no holds barred rock and roll grudge match that is guaranteed to blister even the most sturdy of lead based paints. This will be a different type of show for Dog Leg, as Front man Joe Kurke will be filling in for Bassist Solomon Kane, who was placed on injured reserve last week after suffering a separated tendon in his left elbow. Solomon is doing quite well in his recovery, and is expected to return in time for the Stewarts show in Snohomish in Mid November. Waldo's is located in Kirkland Washington, at 12657 NE 85th street 93033. (425) 827 9292

Joe Shikany Memorial

Sunday October 18th Dog Leg Preacher attended a memorial service for Joe Shikany. A incredible guitarist, and rock legend, not to mention a good friend. although we have not heard an official head count the crowd definitely numbered in the thousands. The experience was incredible, so many people sharing their personal stories, performing songs, sharing memories. I am sure that Joe is proud of the way people came together for this event. Friends like this is part of what makes the Seattle music scene such a special place to call home. WE WILL MISS YOU JOE.

Solomon Kane undergoes emergency surgery

Dog Leg Preacher bassist Solomon (Dan) Kane just underwent emergency surgery on his left elbow. Solomon was standing on a chair to straighten a picture (just like Jesse James) when the chair collapsed. That is how he sustained a tendon separation at his left elbow. Dan is now in recovery and feeling alright. He has a cast from his wrist to his shoulder. We are being told that Dan will be out of comission for approximately four weeks. Needless to say this will affect Dog Leg Preachers upcoming show schedule. Front man Captain Joe Kurke will be strapping on the bass guitar again to cover the showcase sets (45 minute gigs) but some of the longer shows will be rescheduled. There will be more updates on this site soon. The band is planning on being ready to go again in time for the Stewarts show in Snohomish on November 14th. We will all be wishing Dan a speedy recovery.

Dog Leg Preacher plays benefit for Tulalip boys and girls club

Dog leg Preacher put on one great show at the Tulalip boys and girls club last weekend. What a wonderful facility. It was great to see all the smiles on all the faces, and to work with such genuine and gracious people. For those who can go out and check this place out I highly recommend it. The program there is exemplary. The world needs way more places and people like this. It was an honor to be a part of their program, and Dog Leg Preacher will be looking forward to working with them in the future.
