Intro

This little spot on the web is about my love of the Blues.  I'm not an expert nor have I been listening to the blues all my life.  I'm starting a new journey in life at the amazing age of 49 that is called...

IT'S ALL ABOUT ME!

For the past 25 years it's been about raising kids, helping parents and working.  Now the kids have moved out, gotten married and it's time for ME!

In 2002 a friend talked me in to attending the Western Maryland Blues Fest in Hagerstown, MD.  I haven't missed a year since.  What started out as just a fun night out with friends and some live music, has grown into a deep love of that style of music.

About 5-6 years ago, I really started to pay attention to the artists and who I liked and why I liked them.  My son also started going along to the annual Blues Fest and it has become something we share and enjoy together.

The main reason for this little blog is to start a journal of my travels to see some of the best Blues Music out there. Each event I've attended, I've found a band/singer that I have never heard of but fell in love with!  Including...Janiva Magness, Hamilton Loomis, Kelley Bell Band, Trampled Under Foot, Matt Schofield and so many more.  I'll post where I've been and hopefully where I'm going.

If you are looking for deep expertise of the music--move on.  I just like what I like and want to share that with friends and family.
