Chicago hosted Blues Shout, a national traveling Blues workshop and competition week-end. I made the finals in three of the four contests I entered! Here are some great shots taken by Keir Birscoe and Larry Colen
John Joven and I took third place in the Strictly Ballromin' finals!
I made finals in the Jack & Jill
I *finally* made it to finals in the Solo Blues Cuttin' contest, my secret
dream. But here comes Randy, the winner, getting ready to knock me out.
He was terrific!
It was such an amazing week-end, that James from Denver and I were *still*
doing barrel-jumps on Sunday at 5am. Thanks to Larry Colen for capturing
this shot!
The Lil' Smokies and I traveled to Blues Shout in June of 2008 and debuted our first performance. Thanks to Dennis Goetz for the photos!
Thanks to Rich Chang for taking a few shots of us while Lucky and I practiced at Galaxie Studio in Chicago before leaving for the UK together.
