Speaking of Blues; since, you are the BluesDuke?
I've a pair of great center stage seats (thanks to my bride...) to see none other than the legendary B.B.King & Kenny Wayne Shepard, on the 28th.
Plus, although not a "blues" guy, per se?
I've front row ticks for Leo Kottke on the 21st, too.
I take my guitar inspirations seriously.
...even if I only really excel at listening. {g}
Gotta love Ol' Muddy...MUD
