Topic: Goin down to Mississippi!

Ok,
so last night, we went to a duwayne burnside show!
we thought that the show started at 8:00 so we went and pulled up right where the band was and we had some loud tinsley ellis music goin and they kinda looked over at us and smiled and all so we went to meet them. My dad told Duwayne that I played guitar and Duwayne asked if I had my guitar with me and I did so he asked me to play something, so I played a little bit of Stevie Ray's 'Mary Had A Little Lamb'. after I was done, He was jumpin around and goin "OHH! That..That ..she play that..she Play that Stevie Ray song, That how I play!"  and I was laughin. you couldnt really understand much that he was sayin, but he was really cool. So he was like "ok, so you wanna jam tonight? you good enough to jam with me girl" and so I told him that I would be glad to. so since we were a little bit early, we went back home and got my gear and then we went back to the club and after the 1st set, he told me to set up my stuff, so i did. and then he brought me up to play. And It was soo Awesome! I mean I was playing guitar with R.L. Burnside's son! I was so amazed I just couldnt really think. so I played on about 3 or 4 songs with them and after the show he was talkin to me and callin me his little sister and all and he was like "Your a Burnside now!!" and I just couldn't think of what to say! It was soo awesome. But after that, he asked me to come to play at his club(Burnside Blues Cafe) in Mississippi!!!!!!!  he said that there is a blues festival or somethin goin on there and he wanted me to play with his band there!! I couldnt believe it! My dad and I were freaking out! Duwayne even told me that he was gonna Hook Me up and help me to get all the way to the top!!! I am soo thankful for that. I mean he was soo nice and all. So even if we have to "hobo" to Mississippi, we will be there!
I cant wait! so if anyone is down by Mississippi, then yall should come out. Duwayne is an amazing guitar player and I think alot of other blues artists are gonna be there to, so come out and enjoy the blues!!  smile smile

Peace,
sarah

Re: Goin down to Mississippi!

Good luck, Sarah! I just heard Duwayne Burnside on the Beale Street Caravan show on the Blues station tonight. He had that Hendrix thing going. I liked it. I sent the Caravan an e-mail before asking them to feature Joe on the show. They have over 2 million listeners a week. They told me they would look into it. I still haven't heard him on there so I sent another e-mail.

Re: Goin down to Mississippi!

Hey yall,
Yes I have some things recorded. But they are both recorded live. One is me with a local band called Tommy Thunderfoot and the accelerators but that one isnt out yet. and the other one was from last night, they recorded the show and im on it and the guy is gonna send me a copy so It will be posted some where. I have a regualr my space page right now. But im gonna set up a musician one once I get a hold of the cds that im on! We dont have a video camera at the moment. My sister took it with her when she moved to California. We took alot of pictures from the Duwayne Burnside show, I'll post them later. And we also found that magazine that im in! It was at the door at the club last night! we got like 5.

peace,
sarah

Holy crap, Sarah!  Unfortunately, I can't be there to take pictures/videos but I sure hope someone will!  I can't wait to see & hear about what happens.

Re: Goin down to Mississippi!

I got to see Burnside in Mississippi on my road trip last year.  He really can play.  I miss Mississippi a lot...I need to get back there.
