All the road running

Today begins the second weekend of Jazz Fest – it’s local Thursday, when the music is a bit more subdued and the crowd is too. Locals love this day to go the Fest because it usually doesn’t have the 100K crowd that Saturday and Sunday attract. But I’m going later because there is one person I want to see – Emmylou Harris.

I’m a huge fan of hers and have followed her along many steps in her career. I’ve only had the pleasure of seeing her once though and that was in San Francisco at the Filmore when she was there with Julie and Buddy Miller opening for her.

The day started out a little bit better than ordinary – a nice bit of breeze but soon the clouds gathered and it rained and sent home B who was just getting started on the front doors.

Rain rain go away Emmylou is going to play…
