Thread Name: SF Blues Fest cancelled after 36 years
Subject: RE: SF Blues Fest cancelled after 36 years
I'm glad Suzy named those black musicians. I don't know how old Suzy is, but I do find myself, at 54, smiling at who gets called "younger" these days. Corey Harris is 40--a mere kid; Alvin Hart is 46; Eric Bibb is 58; Otis Taylor is 60; Phil Wiggins is 54.
When I was in my 20s, and Muddy and Wolf were still alive, I thought they were ancient. So I guess all these guys do have a lot of time left.
Thanks for the tip on Centrum, Suzy. I hadn't heard of that.
