Topic: Calgary Blues Fest + Subaru

[Vicar]

Ok, I just got to work today, performing at the blues fest at 1

and the "artist parking" for me was up a backroad single track beside the river that ends beside the stage.  And they had volunteers at both ends and let me rip up and down the road till I had my fill!!! Hahahaaa

it was hilarious, so I thought I'd share

Hahaha, now *that*'s a nice way to focus before you go on!

[snackers]

So you're inviting us to come and partake in this road fun?
Where is it?
I'll be there in 5 minutes.

We'll compete.
Are there any markers to indicate the side of the road? Cones? Trees? .... People?

I'll go first, and see how many I can hit.
Then, you go, and see if you can beat me.

hahah, deal, and there are trees.... and a river on the other side.  it's a 2 second penalty if you hit the river.

Only 2?
Worth it!

How many bonus points is a skip across the top of the river, and onto the other side?
I think I'm gonna have you beat, with my falken awesome tyres!

I lol'ed!  I'm also curious about you performing.  I loves me some blues, and also handle CD replication for a living - I like music! Do you have a link to your site?  or some music up anywhere?  Are you playing in Edmonton ever?

You're probably not oldschool Mississippi delta, but that is totally my favorite style of blues.  Loves me some Johnny Shines!

Sounds fun and random with your singletrack experience!

fun, and random! haha

yeah, my site is www.johnnysummers.com the new version should be up in a month or so.

I do mainly Jazz music but... I have performed everything from metal, to jazz, to classical, to well.... everything, and I like a lot of different music

so I have done a lot of old school blues in my time.  We are doing a concert Thursday night in Sylvan Lake for their Jazz festival with my 8 piece band.  We will be doing Jazz, blues, gospel, R&B, soul, and I am working on a Michael Jackson tune that I arranged in a jazz swing style, and we may even do some Amy Winehouse!  haha

website for that festival is http://www.sylvanlakejazzfestival.com/
