Dobro master "Tuck" Tucker plays tonight at Kickin' Devil

A variety of new venues have popped up in recent months in the Gainesville acoustic music scene.  One of those is the kickin' Devil on Northeast 27th Avenue.  Tonight's performers are Grant Peeples and dobro master James "Tuck" Tucker who will play from 7 to 10 p.m.  Florida's 89.1, WUFT-FM's Donna Green-Townsend sat down with Tucker who talks about his latest CD "Smugglers Notch" and his love for the dobro.
