Knuckleheads Saloon, Kansas City

This took place on August 18. As you can see i am running a few weeks behind posting. I had played at Knuckleheads once before in December. The ownership (Frank and his wife) are very cool and know how to make performers feel comfortable. There was nothing i needed that was not readily available. This was a 3 day festival of sorts held on their outdoor stage. I had been especially looking forward to this show because my wife, ruby,(a saint)was coming in from San Diego to see us. We have friends in KC we met on The Legendary Rhythm and Blues Cruise 3 years ago. Tim and Jennifer are huge blues fans and we have a LOT in common.Ruby and i stayed at their way cool house. It was nice to sleep in a real house with my wife for a change. This show was packed full of great acts. Ruby, Tim and Jennifer had great seats in the wings next to the stage. They also hung around backstage with us before and after the show. i was glad to see Zac Harmonon the bill who i know from San Diego and the cruise. This guy has great energy on and off the stage. Also on the bill was Candye Kane. She is from San Diego and we know her most excellent guitarist, Hiene Anderson. Her son is her drummer and i have been watching him gain experience over the years. I dug seeing and talking to him. Candye was sweet to ruby and I. It was great to see them.
This was a very cool show for me. Great audience also. The food backstage was to die for. These people know Bar B Que.
