Last Saturday we were thinking of going for a quiet sail in the warm Spring weather, but on the way to the marina we saw a sign for special parking facilities in Annapolis for the Chesapeake Bay Blues Festival. I forgot it would take place last weekend.
So a quick check online showed that the headline band was the great blues singer Susan Tedeschi and her husband Derek Trucks' great blues band! Maybe you saw them on TV when they played at the White House a few months ago.
We sailed out of the Magothy River past the Baltimore Light and south past Sandy Point Light and anchored off of Sandy Point State Park about an hour before they began. The sound was good at our required 600 feet offshore, the sunset was stunning, and Susan sang two sets including a song she had written only last Tuesday! Here's what we saw during the show. We could watch the musicians on the 2 big screens, on the right in the photo, using binoculars.
This is a video of one of their songs - [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxaineCMv38"]Bound for Glory[/url] <font size="1"> Tell your story Roll the truth around your head Bound for glory I ain’t getting out of this bed The sun comes struggling on Yesterday’s dead and gone
Tell your story Put the night back in your veins Bound for glory I ain’t coming to again The sun comes struggling on Yesterday’s dead and gone And I feel I’m bound for glory Dreaming in a cowboy song I feel I’m bound for glory
Can you feel it? Bound for glory! Can you feel it? Glory bound! Can you feel it? Bound for glory!
Tell your story Roll the truth around your head Bound for glory I ain’t getting out of this bed The sun comes struggling on Yesterday’s dead and gone And I feel I’m bound for glory Dreaming in a cowboy song I feel I’m bound for glory
Can you feel it? Bound for glory! Can you feel it? Glory bound! Can you feel it? Bound for glory!</font id="size1">
Happy sailing!
