The Devil Went Down to Turfway
One of my favorite things to do in the summer is go to concerts. There’s just something different about watching your favorite band perform outside in the open air, the mood is completely different than in an arena. Last night was a night I had been looking forward to for a while, not only because it was a night off, but because I got to see one of my all time favorite bands, Blues Traveler, perform at Turfway Park. They were on tour with Live and Collective Soul. Now, I also really like Live who headlined, but I actually went to see BT, who completely blew me away. Seriously, if you’re not super familiar with them, I HIGHLY recommend their 1991 release, “Travelers and Theives”. John Popper can wail on the harmonica as if he were born with one in his hands. They did an INCREDIBLE cover of the Charlie Daniles Band classic, ‘The devil went down to Georgia’ and Popper completely nailed the fiddle parts on his harmonica. It was a moment my friend and I will be talking about for a while. Live then came on and blew the crowd away and really put on a great show, the energy was phenomenal! So anyway, it was a great night filled with some incredible songs by a couple of my favorite bands and I was able to get away from editing, at least for a couple hours!
