Maytag Bowl on
the Blues Foundation Site

Our own Bowlful of Blues made it onto the website of The Blues Foundation. This is a screen shot of their home page showing the Bowl at night while Watermelon Slim and the Workers played. Paul Houston took this photo and sent it to www.blues.org and he sent the original and the following photos to us for everybody to enjoy.

On Saturday, August 2nd, from 9 am to noon, Buddy Lee and the Blue Law and The Soul Searchers will be performing at Auld Park in Knoxville at the finish line of the Knoxville Nationals 1/3 Marathon Race to benefit the Dollars for Scholars program.
