Nothin but blues

[Ropey]

If one boy on this board can tell me he can chair dance...... I know I have met a true blues dude.

That's not what I'd call a man dancing like that.

Ok, come on everyone.....

there is a house in new orleans, they call the rising sun

Is everybody with me here.....

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

------ organ solo ------

Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

I love Eric.

Has anyone brought up Paul Butterfield yet? I hate wrecking at thread if I bring up something someone else has pegged off. ETA: let me know if I'm stepping on anyones toes here, but I swear I never saw his name brought up. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

Butterfield was to die for. I always loved harp players.

Man oh man oh man. Paul would just freaking howl away. Damn I loved him. 50000000 x ten on the richter scale.

Dang it. For the life of me I cannot today remember this bar on Bloor, and you'd have to stagger stagger roll roll down these stairs to just get into this one club that always featured blues.

Any other canuck out there remember this blues club in the big smoke?

And okey dokey, just as a heads up if you are an old blues/rocker, I can remember this washroom as clear as a bell.

But I can't for the life of me remember what I cooked for my husband two weeks ago.

hehehe take your vitamins
