Crossroads Guitar Festival
I went to the Crossroads Guitar Festival this weekend and I was really amazed. I'd like to think that this will be placed next to Woodstock in the annals of music events - minus the naked mud wrestling, rain, and Hendrix. The highlight of the evening was when Santana and Clapton jammed together. It was surreal how good these guys were together. When B.B. King jammed with Clapton, Jimmy Vaughan, and Buddy Guy the whole crowd went wild. It's amazing these guys still play at their age. I mean B.B. King is like 76 - he started when he was sixteen. That means he's been playing for 60 years. He sits down on stage and his voice is still gold. If I'm still playing at that age I'll be able to die a happy man. One funny thing. Why is it when crowds hear the artist say their location they have to scream? B.B. King was singing a song and it went like this "I'm trying to find my baby, where is she? In the Cotton Bowl?"..crowd screams.."Where is she? In Dallas Texas?"..crowd screams. I don't know why I find it funny. I guess it's just so obvious, like when your uncle has your nose, where we are.
Thought of the day
"The library investigator's name is actually Bookman?"
"It's true."
"That's amazing. That's like an ice cream man named Cone."
