These are my notes. And the bands were good too.
*The 87 yr old blues saxophone player is super happy
to be here. He's not sure what this town is called (Saline? Selena?) but he knows he likes it! This man makes the Blues Brothers seem low
key and mostly sane. He also gets away
with calling a crowd of people old enough to be your parents, “children.” Because, hey, he’s old enough to be
theirs. Also, can he be my grandpa? My grandpa was good, but this guy is nuts.
<3 him.
*Fist Pump Guy is very sweaty in his mostly
un-buttoned bedazzled Dragon shirt. He
is also REALLY EXCITED to see these bands.
REALLY. Also, he
is approximately 40-55 years old. Yes,
this is someone’s father. Be sorry for
that someone.
*Differences between AARP black & white folk:
- 40 year old white girls
shake their booties while getting up for the bathroom, then apologize to those around
them.
-40 year old black
girls
A: Dance
B: Call & response (Amen!)
C: Know
the lyrics
D:
Dance better, or
E:
all of the above.
Is this a question?
It's always E!
*The bassist from the Robert Cray band wants to have
the sex with you-ALL of the yous-but then later he will wear you as a coat. Seriously, this is the best serial killer
cover ever. Blues people travel to BFEs
all over the world. They stay for a day
or two. Heck, if he’s ever watched
NCIS/CSI/COPS he’ll be able to hide the bodies well enough that he’ll have
blown town before they even know someone’s gone missing. I think someone should Google the tour
schedule and cross reference it with missing persons. But then, I’m not from the town it was held
in, so if I went missing, my name wouldn’t pop up. See?!
This is made of win. If getting away
with killing people and wearing them as apparel can be considered a win. Hmmmm.
*Regardless, for 50$, this was a weekend well
wasted. And if you’re over 21, all the performers--yes,
even the 87 year old one—get down at the Ramada Inn Ballroom until 2am for the
after party. And that’s free of any
charge but what you choose to drink.
