5th of September – Blues in Rentiesville

The day started with band-practise, and grooming for the evening. I mean you just got to be prepared for a deal like this!
Jay came to drive us to Rentiesville and the blues festival, and boy, that man can drive….
– we can reveal that we got there safe and mostly in one piece.
Shiverbone were second band out om the club stage and did a splendid job. It was early in the evening so the club was not packed, but the crowd was supportive and enthusiastic.
One guy came up and said – the only band here taking good care of the Hendrix legacy in blues – not a bad compliment really. A guy came up and said to Svenn; “You are going to make it big time!”. Now – our question is, when is big and when is time? And Vibeke sold a bunch of CDs and the guys signed autographs.
As some of us were at one of the outside stages, Stig, Svenn and Mona Lisa sat through a concert at the club scene, and fell in love with this man: www.johnnyrawlsblues.com. He took stage and occupied everything with his mere presence. And to top it of – he had been in Norway and actually lived in Horten – Vibeke and Knut’s home town – so we got some greetings to bring back home.
All in all a memorable evening for us all.
