| The South Florida Blues Society Guitar Showcase was too much fun to explain. The Funky Biscuit is the perfect place to have an event like this. Great sound, great stage, great lights, and great audience. Just great all the way. All the guitarists, singers, drummers, bassists, and keyboardists were stellar. Thank you to all the participants including: Blues Bobby Weinberg for organizing the event, Mike Ancona for keeping everybody happy while they waited their turn, Alan Wilkov & Craig Stevens for backing me up, the Drew Preston Band with Muff Cunningham, Beth the Funky Biscuit manager, and Jeff who did great work as sound man. |
