We just found out that our 17 yr old gaughter is prego, I am cool with the grandpa thing at 40, but my wife is freakin’! She needs to get into a “blues groove” and chill…this would be perfect, and I might get lucky!

Since living in Canada the last 30 years, this being my first JULY 4th Celebration in the USA since moving back to the USA, it would be perfect! Nobody celebrates like the Americans on July 4th. and.. it would be a good way for me to meet people!

We just moved to Portland less than a month ago and would love to see the city from the river. I came her to attend college, so money is tight. I grew up on blues and would love to the chance to experience this.

There is nothing better than being on a boat on a beautiful summer day! this is how I grew up and it has been years since I’ve had the luxury to do so! I would love the chance to go out on the water and see Portland as I have not had the chance to see it! this would make my summer, and give me an opportunity I would never get otherwise! this would make the best 4th in years!!!

I’m originally a Chicago Blues girl- Id see BB King on Easter when he came home to see familiy and book a performance. He’d wear block-tie formal. And John Lee Hooker and Bobby Blue Bland.

But down the river- in a river town like Portland- was the Alligator Bar and Grill, where Koko would sit in on Sunday nights with some of the boys down state. I think she had sisters there.

Now, no one can take the Queen’s place, but UmmmMmmm Linda, when she croons, and Julianne she holds those notes so fine. And I miss the river and the music, and I’d like to ride that blue water just one more time.
