A Southern Rock Weekend!

Kicked it off at the free Duluth Summer Stage performance of the Atlanta Rythm Section!
They played all the hits; Imaginary Lover, Spooky, Not Gonna Let it Bother Me Tonight, etc... It was a real Champagne Jam!

Then last nite at Chastain for B.B. King and the Tedeschi Trucks Band.  What a show.  B.B. ambled out to join his excellent band in an eclectic set that ranged from When Love Comes to Town and Key To The Highway, to You Are My Sunshine and When the Saints Go Marching In.


Then it got really hot with the inredicble Tedeschi/Trucks Band.  This 11 piece juggernaut led by Susan's soulful singing and Derek's searing slide guitar played a rockin couple of hours.  Two drummers, a three piece horn section, backup singers, the whole enchilada of blues, funk, jazz and New Orleans style voodoo!


 Back to Chastain this Friday for Foreigner and Night Ranger,  No rest for the wicked, see you at the show!
