And then it ended. Six days of much more than blues. As Chirs Thomas King likes to say, "I don't give a damn what the purists say, they wouldn't know the blues if it bit em anyway."
Early on, I decided not to write a lot about the music, but just comment once in a while and show you pictures. I'll have some more to say later after I've processed.
Almost Done
I'm not preturbed, really. Ok, some.
The Nevilles had already started at the other end of the Festival. At the A&E stage Janice Scroggins and Louis Pain work out something before Linda Hornbuckle's band started.
And I introduced them.
And the dancing started immediately.

"Voices of the Wetlands" set
"Voices of the Wetlands" was formed at least a year before faulty construction of the levees caused New Orelans to be destroyed. Their point was that because the wetlands south of the city had been ignored and exploited for profit there was a much greater danger of flooding.
Yeah, I know. Brownie's boss and the feds in general had dropped the ball on this for decades.
Nothing has gotten any better. But voices must still be raised.
Members include, Cyril Neville, Tab Benoit, Anders Osbourne, Jumpin' Johnny Sansone, Wayne Thibodoux and others.

Paul deLay Tribute
The last Paul deLay band. They've released a live album, "The Last of the Best." David Vest announced to the crowd that Paul was back on top, that the album had gone to #1 on the Amazon Live Blues Albums list.
Two great piano players backstage after the set: Janice Scroggins and David Vest.

David Vest and Duffy Bishop.
Peter Dammann joined the schmooze.
D.K. Stewart did too.
This is Jean Kempe-Ware, one of the unsung heroes of the Blues Festival. She is in charge of media relations for the Oregon Food Bank. I've dealt with media relations people for decades and I have to say she is one of the most talented, most thorough, nicest and most patient I've ever met. And she actually loves the music, too!

Gospel Time
Linda Hornbuckle, Janice Scroggins et all inspired those inspirable and musically pleased everyone else.
Sunday 7/8/07---The Final Day!
At 11:30am, before the gates opened, Gary Houston and Ron Rogers act like they like each other. They actually do.
At noon, I introduced Ocean 503, from Portland.
This is Tim Rutter, manager of the Miller Stage. Both Jim and Bill at the Credit Union stage did fabulous jobs. Never a cross word, always getting things on and off on time...and great guys.
Dick Potts, Mac Potts and Ben Rice were everywhere!

4 p.m.
Reggie Houston and Charmaine Neville renew their collaboration of over 20 years.
...along with Amasa Miller, co-leader of her band, also up from New Orleans for the Festival.
...as Reinhard Melz, the best second-line drummer in town, kicked off on the one and let the boogie do the rest. (James Brown said that.)
After the cruise, this familiar face and ears was by the fountain. He was not invited to participate in the festival, thank God..

The city gleamed from the stern
...another stern...Fred Stern the rainbow maker.
On the middle deck, one man had on his dancing shoes.
While David Vest and family got ready for Reggie and Charmaine.
