Brian “Skinny” McCabe, the booking agent and jack of all trades at Newby’s, has won so many Best of Memphis Awards that he got a tattoo. Read Bianca Phillips’ interview with him about that. Friday is his birthday. What else would one do but celebrate with some Clanky’s Nub? The Nub is … god knows what. But their drummer is Jay Sheffield. Read Sheffield’s bio below the video for Clanky’s Nub’s “Linchpin.” Also on the birthday bill are the Soul Thieves, and KPhonix. Happy Birthday, Skinny.
