Tolcher

This past summer, back in July, I had the day off and decided to play golf. I went to the Raleigh Golf Association because you don't need a tee-time. Since I was by myself they paired me up with a couple of other people, one of which was Michael Tolcher. I didn't know who it was, but it turns out he's a musician and was in town that day to play a show later that night. I ended up going to the show that night not knowing what to expect, but it was really good, he puts on a great show. There were not too many people there, but he still has some teenage groupies that go to all his shows. I would describe the show as funk-rock with a little pop mixed in. Not too bad, lots of energy with a nice sound. Anyway, he seems to be a real nice guy, down to earth and a pretty good golfer, although I think I got him by a couple strokes that day.

He is doing a show with Gavin DeGraw here in Raleigh on Wednesday, January 12, at the Disco Rodeo (formerly The Ritz). If you get a chance, check it out.
