I go to the annual Chicago blues fest every year, but I've never been impressed with the lineup until now. Both Koko Taylor and Buddy Guy will be performing on Saturday. I hope I can capture a few good photos! I hope the weather cooperates!! Any other DPCers going??

I wish..... I remember one year when I was a kid, my Dad recorded the entire thing off of NPR, at least I think it was NPR, but anyway. I must have listened to those tapes over and over. I love the blues. hmmmm Chicago IS only about 4 hours away from where I live....... now you've gone and tempted me....

I love the blues too. I can't wait! Other performers include Mavis Staples (Sunday) and Pinetop Perkins (mmm, Fri or Sat?), Billy Branch ... well it goes on.

I am sooooooooooo green with envy. I have seen Buddy Guy a few years back & was going to go to Koko Taylor but she was unable to come out here due to health reasons & then when she was in New Zealand, I wasn't :(
