Our fine fiddler Billy Oh was invited onstage to jam with Toumani Diabati and his band last night @ Logan Square Auditorium. Here’s a blurry cameraphone shot of the festivities. Click on the image for a larger, blurrier version.

It was painfully cold in Chicago last night, but I doubt that anyone in attendance regretted venturing out into the snow. Diabati’s band was one of the finest I’ve ever seen — a collection of virtuosi who exhibited remarkable restraint in their ensemble playing.
