] Around Columbia: Chili

Chili

Steven Chilson, Chili to his friends, is back in the Columbia area after many years at the Lake of the Ozarks where he played with various bands.  I have always been fascinated with street musicians having watched them in Stuttgart,  Memphis, New York, everyplace in between, and of course here in Columbia.  I had the pleasure of listening and watching him play in front of Cool Stuff (why doesn't my  friend Arnie Fagan have a web site for his wonderful store?!) on an absolutely beautiful day.

So, I decided to do a short article in appreciation of this talented musician.

 
  
  
Writers write, photographers take pictures, and musicians play and everyone else just talks it.  Chili has been doing it for over two decades.
