What a great weekend entertainment - wise here in the Tennessee Valley !
First of all, if you missed the comedian "Gallagher" at The Comedy Catch, you missed quite a show ! Quite a show.
Gallagher was the first real superstar comedian to come out of the early days of cable television.
He's a real craftsman at what he does, and has a great way or incorporating the crowd reaction into his act.
Gallagher also brought the world-famous 'Sledge-O-Matic' back into his act for the final show on Friday night. The 'Sledge-O-Matic' bit had been retired from the Gallagher stand-up routine for quite some time now...until Friday night at The Comedy Catch.
You folks who were sitting in the front few rows...Good luck in washing the watermelon out.
If I wore a hat, I'd tip it to George Parker, who promoted the 1st Annual Southside Blues Festival Saturday at the First Tennessee Bank Pavillion. Good crowd and GREAT music !
Robert Cray simply blew the crowd away that night.
He's probably one of the best guitar players on the circuit. But if you're capable of opening up for Eric Clapton and B.B. King, what do you expect ?
Brother Parker tells me he has even more great musical acts up his sleeve.
Great job putting the Blues Festival together, George...great job.
There was cornbread aplenty in South Pittsburg over the weekend as well. Organizers tell me the 12th annual National Cornbread festival drew people from all over the country, and more money was raised for the Marion County Children's fund that ever before.
Kudos ! And thanks to everyone who stopped by Capital Toyota & Lexus of Chattanooga to see us at our remotes this weekend. Our NEXT appearance at Capital Toyota & Lexus of Chattanooga is set for Thursday & Friday May 15 & 16. We'll see you then !
