I also might give Bonnie Raitt a "Ho_Hum of Set," but I saw her at HSBG, hanging out back stage and she seemed pretty nice.
She was getting some coffee, and I didn't recognize her up close, we were both sort of jostling for prime coffee position (!), but some guy I was chatting with recognized her and asked her to take a picture with him. He then turned to me and asked me if I wouldn't mind holding the camera. I said "If she's cool with it."
Of course she was nice about it, but I thought the guy was out of bounds asking in the first place. not appropriate.
She didn't perform, but she watched all of Dr. John's set as well as The Blind Boys of Alabama. My god! The Blind Boys were fantastic! And Dr. John is a legend. Good times.
holy shit, more white boy reggae. WTFWOS.
