A Blues Slight Change Of Plans...

Scott (MF) Holt always puts on a great show.

This was at Home Team in West Ashley last Saturday night.

Actually, anywhere I've seen him perform, he is fiery..

Earlier that evening I had arrived an hour and a half before showtime downtown at Blind Tiger but couldn't find a seat. None.

Thought I would have dinner and see Mac Arnold and Plate Full 'O Blues but even though the band was still setting up, all the seats in the bar area were already filled. Yikes.

But, Blues Bash means options, so I looked over the printed program and headed out West.
Actually, on Monday, I had scored the best seat in the house at Blind Tiger for Doug Deming & The Jewel Tones and was pleasantly surprised when Blues Bash Founder Gary Erwin stopped in to sip wine and check on things.

Gary was relaxed and looked pleased at the half-way point of his 21st offering of music to the Lowcountry.


Dennis Gruenling was featured on harmonica that evening with the band.

The packed room was treated to an excellent expanded sound.

Standing at the bar were local harp bluesmen Chuck Morris and Juke Joint Johnny.

Here's a batch of other sights and performances I caught during this year's Bash:

Labels: Abe Lincoln, Blind Tiger, DeiDre, Freddie Vanderford/Brandon Turner, Home Team (WA), Mad River Bar and Grill, Matt Hill and On-The-Floor Band, Planet D Nonet, Scott Holt, Ten Foot Polecats
