That was great. Does anyone else watch Sun Studios on PBS?
This is an awesome episode about Mississippi Fred McDowell.
Shane Speal, Cedric Burnside and Justin Johnson among others will be playing at the Clarksdale,MS Blues festival October 14th through the 16th.
I plan to be there and hope all the Ms group members can attend and meet each other as well.
Welcome Dr.Moon!
Welcome Dr. Moon.
Glad to see that there is a cbg group for Mississipians (even us transplants). I live in Starkville and have been building cbgs for a couple of years. Would really like to get together with other builders in the state. I don't play worth a crap, but I really enjoy building them.
Welcome, Michael. Glad to have you aboard.
I had the pleasure of playing in Ocean Springs at the Mississippi Songwriter's Festival in 2014. Beautiful city.
