The last time singer-songwriter Mark Olson played the AllGood Café, the power went out right before the show. Olson and his band weren't fazed, however, offering to do the gig completely acoustic. Unfortunately for us, the power came back on, and while the sprinkling of old Jayhawks songs and excellent solo material (The Salvation Blues was easily one of last year's most charming releases) still sounded beautiful through the P.A., you have to admit it would have been magical to hear underappreciated classics such as "Blue" and "Over My Shoulder" performed in the soft glow of votive candles. So here's hoping a big ol' North Texas thunderstorm hits right before Olson takes the stage 8 p.m. Friday at the AllGood, 2934 Main St. Tickets are $15. Visit allgoodcafe.com.
