MJEB's All Colours Blues Blog Part 9 - R&R, Indy and Travelling
When we last left our heroes, they'd just completed a run of 8 shows with a spot at the Bloomington Garlic festival and it was time for some well deserved R&R.
Oh Rosie.
The wonderful Pete from back to nature cabins offered to put us up for a couple of nights, which we gladly accepted. You're a legend Pete.
Now they say what goes on tour stays on tour, so I shall keep the mention of the hot tub very brief. There was a hot tub. It really puts farting in the bath to shame. Pants optional.
Also I wound up having to share a bed with Theo, due to a slight bed deficit.
Or so he said.
There may have been spooning.
I cant quite say.
Moving on.
Dave and Marget invted us out for a labor day moment on the water. Theo thought this was just fine by him.
I pretty much knew I was in the right spot instantly. ARRR!!
We ate, drank, swam and jammed.
Bill & Roscoe practised for the KC gig.
In fact, I had a cracker of a marketing idea. 12 months of Roscoe
Here's some R&R Moments on Vid.
The next day we took some down time in the cabins, where Jo decided it was time to play her newly acquired acoustic guitar.
Whilst we absorbed the scenery.
Leaving Bloomington
Bummer.
Breakfast on the way out with Dave. Cheers Dave.
The Indiana leg of our tour was outstanding and our gratitude list too long for entertainment purposes.
We owe a great deal of thanks to Mark and Dave for making it happen, and our great affection goes to all the Hoosiers who brought us such kindness.
Day 15
I knew D-Dawg would be spinning some 78's in KC that Wednesday at an obscure back alley bar. That meant a long drive out of Indiana, back across Illinois, stopping in St Louis for some Zico action (hey Z!) and then making a dash for X's folks place and a night downtown in KC.
