Ross Brown Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Went to the heritage Music Bluesfest this past weekend. Backstage passes for the whole weekend. I got schooled by bass player Coco Henderson (Smokin Joe Kubek and Bnois King). Cool dude. It was fun to meet and talk with him. Also met Orlando Wright (Buddy Guy's bass player). Great weekend of great music. I need to practice... Orlando Wright and your's truely... http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k220/jwisot01/012.jpg Coco Henderson... http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k220/jwisot01/008.jpg http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k220/jwisot01/011.jpg "When I take a stroll down Jackass Lane it is usually to see someone that is already there" Mrs. Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b5pilot Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Very cool! That would have been a great show to go to. Lydian mode? The only mode I know has the words "pie ala" in front of it. http://www.myspace.com/theeldoradosband Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddiePlaysBass Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I missed out on Smokin Joe Kubek and Bnois King in the blues club where my band formed, rehearsed and had our debut gig.

Russkull Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Awesome, Ross! Looks like a really fun time. That's a great pic of Coco in action! "Of all the world's bassists, I'm one of them!" - Lug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham56 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Nice pics Ross, looks like you had a good time. Just one teeny leetle thing though. Ahem. Isn't that a rather bland shirt you are wearing? What with you being THE Ross Brown, the legendary and stylish owner of THE Shirt an'all. We lesser, sartorially challenged players look up to you, you know. It's a heavy responsibility you bear... Cheers! Graham PS: If I remember correctly don't you currently have the Shirt in your possession anyway? It won't be happy you know... www.talkingstrawberries.com - for rocking' blues, raw and fresh!

Ross Brown Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Damn it!!! I was hoping no one would notice... I actually had The Shirt with me. It was in the room... I wore it the day before... all day... it was funky.... There are no pictures of that so I know... I know... An opportunity missed. Orlando was pissed. He wanted to wear it.... Buddy was beside himself when I told him it was only for bass players to wear... (I wish...) The Shirt could tell when I got back to the room that I had messed up.... It accepted my apology... I promised another chance next year...
