NOTED ACTS

DEKE DEAN'S ROCKABILLY OPEN MIC — Since extending the open-mic policy to entire bands as well as individual performers, Dean and the members of his able backing band, Blue Avenue, have found themselves with yet another happy surplus of performing talent. Brent Cashman has been among those who turned up, and a coupla weeks ago they actually had two sax players — one of whom was none other than Johnny Knox. Northside Tavern (Nicoll)

DOYLE DYKES — Windham Hill recording artist Dykes is an acoustic guitar hero roughly occupying the space between Leo Kottke and Chet Atkins. As a frequent guest on the Grand Ole Opry and a stint playing lead guitar for the late Grandpa Jones, he has paid his country dues, but his real strength lies in his virtuoso fingerpicking. Dykes' Atlanta appearance is a combination concert/guitar workshop, where he will both perform and discuss technique. Guitar Center (Robertson)
