THE CANTINA : Part I of the Hillman Jam Series

WALKIN' WRECK | GOIN' DOWN DOWN DOWN

Ken Daniels - musician and retired Brandon University professor - built this unique Brandon-area building 20 years ago. Over the years he has hosted weekly jam sessions and has provided practice space for hundreds musicians. The walls of this private, rural "club" are made with stucco-covered straw bales - all protected by a steel roof. The room is done up in Mexican decor and is jam packed with dream gear and memorabilia: Marshall, Peavey and Fender amps ~ super PA and light systems ~ Hammond with Leslie ~ doghouse bass ~ large stage, bar, tables and chairs ~ LCD projector and screen, computer system with WiFi access to a huge A/V music library stored on Ken's dedicated server ~ wall memorabilia from Ken's travels and from the many musicians who have jammed here over the years. All of this is protected by an elaborate security system and all of it provided through the generosity of Professor Daniels -- a major supporter of Manitoba music.
