Free Bird!

By on Sunday, July 24th, 2011 | No Comments

Jimmie Van Zant, of the Lynyrd Skynyrd Van Zants, played at Skippers tonight. I think I had way to much fun listening to music, yakking with old and new friends and maybe a bit too much Corona….Good thing I brought my driver with! Tonight was definitely the night to yell out “FREE BIRD”.  And no [...]

Me and Bobby McGee

By on Wednesday, May 11th, 2011 | No Comments

At concerts when everyone else is yelling “Free Bird”, I usually request “Bobby McGee”. Kris Kristofferson played in Tampa last night and I didn’t even have to wait for it. He played it within the first 10 minutes. He did a one man show with his guitar and harmonica. At almost 75, he still has [...]

This guy is Jon Cleary – a blues musician. I saw him perform at the blues festival this weekend. Bought [...]

Can You See the Light

I must have been living under a rock because I only found out a couple of days ago that Jeff Healey died almost 3 years ago. I saw Jeff perform at the Tampa Bay Blues Festival in 2001 and again in Sarasota. I had taken some pictures of him from the first time. I made [...]

The Rockapella guys made a little Valentine’s mashup just for everyone to enjoy. Must be time to pop that champagne cork and get out the strawberries!

Rays and Music

By on Sunday, September 19th, 2010 | No Comments

I went to the Tampa Bay Rays game last night with Crystal and Ralph. I thought I was going to the baseball game with a concert afterwards and they thought they where going to have to sit through some baseball to see Adam Lambert. Crystal wasn’t sure she even liked baseball. I had to assure [...]

Who would have ever thought up making a bow on the top of your head with hair? Only GaGa herself…

Ryan Shaw’s band has a really good bass player named “Tiny”.  I never did figure out what his real name is, but he sure can play! And here’s the solo:
