The Voodoo Blues Band unfortunately pulled in the silver medal at last Saturday's Blues Challenge in Springfield. The winning band was from Springfield, and our fellas who stayed to hear them were complimentary but thought that we compared favorably. In any event, we played pretty well and had a chance to strut our stuff, including a lot of originals by Raul, our fearless leader.
Well, maybe we'll end up at the Memphis finals one of these times!
We heard overheard Biden and Obama while in Springfield, but were not able to really attend the event--even though it was close by, there was a completely different entry (complete with top flight security) that made it near impossible to do both things. There were numerous sharpshooters on the roof--I felt equal parts chilled by their apparent necessity and good that they were there and taking it seriously.

In re: the contest results - just wait till next year.
As for the other, we can't wait till next year.
Wow - let us pray that Mr. Obama is safe. There are a lot of nut-cases out there.
Did you wear your Obama pin? I just pounded my new yard sign in tonight. It is up for the duration.
Yep
I like your new slide show of the event.
