Ricky Scaggs

We are fortunate enough to have an music venue that is small and intimate in Newberry. They draw great groups of music, all types. We have a friend that is very much into blue grass and on occasion he drags a group up to Newberry and we begrudgingly watch a band of his choosing. Last night we all shuffled up to Newberry in 30 degree weather and saw Ricky Scaggs. Who would have thought that we would enjoy it as much as we did? Ricky is looking a little haggard, like the rest of us, very pudgy and white/grey hair!! He can play, but a back up tenor/guitar player, Paul Brewster was better at singing! He had an awesome natural twang to his voices and sang my old Kentucky home that brought the crowd to their feet!!
Today we are off to Charleston to take Lili and Brilli out to lunch. No classes and no state government offices open, so Ken can't service his clients and their licenses. Me, I keep sticking to my salad and no wine, I should down about 15 lbs now, about 25 to go!!
Check out Paul Brewster on Itunes, I'll be a member of his publicity team. He's really good. I just bought his album on itunes, called everybody's talking, he's really that good!! Your welcome Paul
