Topic: Robben Ford Sunset Gig
I hooked up with Bluezman Sat. evening for the first show in the California Maritime Academies Summer Concert Series. Summertime at the Maritime is a free concert series that runs through Oct. Last nights show featured local favorite Alvon Johnson who played mostly an acoustic blues set. Robben Ford headlined and as always blew the crowd away. These concerts are held on the Maritme campus lawn next to the shoreline of the north SF Bay. The view is spectacular looking out on the water and the new Crocket Bridge behind us. The only down side is being on the Bay in the evening as the fog approaches the wind picks up and the temp. by the end of the show was about 55 degrees. Needless to say layers of clothing were applied. The cool air prompted many of us to dance our butts off to keep warm and Robben oblidged with plenty of booty shakin' blues.
