Mississippi Valley Blues Festival


I took a different approach to the Mississippi Valley Blues Festival this year.  In the past, I selected one or two bands that I wanted to see, and just attended those days. This year, I attended every day, including the pre-fest party at The Muddy Waters and two nights of post-fest jam sessions. I didn’t get to see every act, and only attended two of the workshops, but I definitely had a healthy dose of blues. By the end of Saturday night, I was exhausted but elated. It was absolutely the best Blues Fest I’ve attended.
