Rocking the Blues- o2 Forum

[jono1uk]

so last night i went to the final "Rocking the Blues" show which was a tour that finished in London.
on the bill were Kris Barras , Jonny Lang and Walter Trout .
No doubt you would of heard of Walter, and Maybe Jonny ..but perhaps not Kris ..
interesting back story to him ..he started playing at the age of 5 and gigging in his early teens then in is 20's he became a professional "cage fighter"
winning quite a few matches.
Then 4 years ago he quit and became a full time musician

I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed the show. I met Walter Trout in India a few years ago, we were both booked at the same festival. He's a very nice guy. Jonny Lang I saw when he first came over here in the mid 90s, again we were both playing at a festival. He was very hyped by the industry because he was so young. Kris's name I know and I think I have probably heard his music on some blues rock radio shows.

In its former incarnation as the Town & Country Club I played there a few times and saw some great shows there. In fact the last time I saw and spoke with Bo Diddley was at the T & C.

Shine On
