Jazz it up...

Day 1 Jazz in June Moblog

Our first night - "Blues under the Stars" - went as smooth as glass and saw a record crowd for our Thursday concert... probably 8k - 10k people moovin' and groovin' to some great blues tunes. Local group Watermelon Slim pulled some classic Muddy Waters out of the hat and warmed up the crowd with a steamin' 'monica and a solid blues beat.

The Holmes Brothers fanned the fire further getting the crowd to their feet and begging for more as the last notes faded on a warm summer breeze.

Day one done.... two more to go... wish you were here....
