Last Saturday, September 21, these Blues Fest acts played on the KASU Arkansas Roots Stage at the Beatles At The Ridge Festival in Walnut Ridge, Arkansas.

Bebop Beatniks, The Spencer Brothers, Mike Mcleod, Anna and the Tanks.

We had rain and started an hour late. I want to thank Doug Butler who skipped his set to put us back on schedule. Doug will be playing at Blues Fest on Sunday, September 29.

Doug is carrying the load putting on Blues Fest. I help how I can with scheduling and promotion but I'm too old to do all the work that's involved.

I shot video of all the acts. Here's the Bebop Beatniks video.

As I get the other videos done I will post them on Delta Boogie and send out links in next months newsletter.

We did get to talk to Joe Gordon at the Arkansas Roots stage. He's a fantastic bass player who helped us many times at Blues Fest.

I want to mention Reyzadren who joined G+DBN. He's into music and gaming just like me. If you're on the fediverse with Mastodon, Pixelfed, Peertube, etc. you can contact Reyzadren here.
