Ahhh, what a party. If it takes me three days to recover it means one of two things. Either we partied hard or I’m gettin’ old. Or both.
Not as many people as we would liked to have had, but what a grand time it was. Bleu and the band were awesome. Just awesome. Some of the cleanest sound I’ve heard outside in a long time.
Even yours truly managed to jam with Bleu and The R&B Band for a few minutes and I still feel honored to be allowed on stage with such a tight band.
This hill is a great place to have a show. And we promise there will be more.
I want to thank Bleu and the band for being here, all those who came up to see the show, and the really cool cop that visited us around 10pm and told us of one complaint they had about the noise.
I guess we did pretty good if only one scumbag complained. So we thank the people of Bristol for tolerating us for the evening.
Also want to pass along our prayers and support for our friend and Bleu’s manager, JR Worley, as he is experiencing some serious difficulties in his life at the moment.
We are with you, JR.
Thanx again to Sonic Drive In for their support and fellowship and to Ellen and Mike, Lyle, Gerbert, Todd Foster of the BHC and everyone who supported this event in both action and word.
Rock on!
