Hi folks,
I see that Ellis will be playing at one of his favorite venues tomorrow. Eddie's Attic in Atlanta. Some of you know that Ellis is a big Civil War buff. September 1 is a historic date in the timeline of the Civil War. It was on Sept. 1, 1864 that Union General William T. Sherman sent a telegram to President Abraham Lincoln saying:
Atlanta is ours and fairly won.
The photograph below taken by photographer George N. Barnard shows William T. Sherman in Atlanta Leaning on Breach of Gun.
It's pretty amazing to see this photograph from 142 years ago and others taken during the Civil War considering that capturing images (photography)was a fairly new technology. One of the first and greatest photographic documents of history-in-the-making was that of the Civil War.
Truthfully, though...I'd rather see pictures of Ellis Paul taken at Eddie's Attic....
