About Me


A person addicted to music, movies, photography, and other creative pursuits ... like writing ... and spinning cool Blues tunes for you on the radio ...
I do a Blues show on the air on KFMG-LP 99.1 FM every other Tuesday night from 7-9 p.m. CST, which began on April 10th, 2007, called "T-Bone's Blues & Groove Show." It's only 100 watts so it only reaches the metropolitan Des Moines, Iowa area but tune in if you are here!
BUT IT IS NOW ONLINE at www.kfmg991.org so the whole planet can tune in now!
And I also have a show called "The Chill Zone with T-Bone" from 9-10 p.m. CST right after my Blues show.
I am also the founding editor for BluesWax - the On-Line Voice of the Blues - and the largest subscribed Blues publication on the planet (shoot, it's free! Git yers at www.blueswax.com).
I also contribute occasionally to Blues Revue, the largest Blues print publication in the world (www.bluesrevue.com).
All this is in addition to my duties as the newsletter editor for the Central Iowa Blues Society (www.cibs.org), and as the co-chairman of the Iowa Blues Hall of Fame committee (www.bluesongrand.com/ibhof).
Blues On Grand in Des Moines is my "2nd home" and is the coolest Blues club on the planet. Visit when you're in the area and check out their awesome website at www.bluesongrand.com, designed by the extremely talented Jen Taylor of VividPix (www.vividpix.com).
All of this doesn't leave much time to hit the stage with my own Blues/Soul band called Brother T-Bone Groove that, unfortunately, only rears its beautifully ugly head once in a great while ... well, actually ... let's see ... Scot is a member of The Tommy Castro Band now, and Doug moved to San Antone ... so, yeah, the band is pretty much on permanent hiatus at this point.

But I do go see my Pammy Mac (and her super-cool daughter, Kaly Mac) whenever I can, which is never enough, but very incredible and fabulous when it happens ...
... and oh yeah ... my real name is Don Erickson ...

***THE IMPERIAL CROWNS LIVE AT A38 IN BUDAPEST, HUNGARY***
If you're a man, The Imperial Crowns music makes ya wanna git out on the hard streets and preach the Holy Gospel, then armed with a cheap small caliber pistol, rob a liquor store, make it to your best friend's house while he's away on his job, and make love to his girlfriend. By the time he drags his weary ass home, his girl, his mama and you are sittin' around the kitchen table with a bucket of Popeye's. You look up at him without batting an eye and say "Have some chicken, bruh."
If you're a woman, The Imperial Crowns music makes ya wanna walk back into that office you been bustin' your ass in for the last nine and a half hours, and tell the boss's son who gave you that "relaxing neck rub," "If ya put your fuckin' hands on me one more time, I'll kick your narrow ass all the way to Cleveland and back!" ... then jump in your car, drive to Tijuana and have your interior tuck n' rolled, pull up to your boyfriend's pad Sunday morning, honk the horn 'til he comes out and tell him, "We're havin' church in the car, baby!"
Well, be you woman or be you man, or be you something... in between ... the music of The Imperial Crowns is gonna make you wanna do SOMETHING! Most likely you won't rob a liquor store after hearing (and hopefully witnessing) these hard working souls, but you SHALL be left with an impression that's gonna stay with ya for a good long time. These days, there are those who feel The Blues should be kept "pure"... locked up in a museum, and worshipped. Well, The Imperial Crowns say KISS MY ASS to that! Preachin' the blues everywhere they go, pimpin' the blues like a lowdown 'ho!!!...
J J Holiday has got a big greezy sound when he plays his axe. A stone soul poet of the slide guitar, he carries the Delta in his ass pocket...
