Monday, June 9

"Monday, Monday" - The Mamas & The Pappas
" I'll Be Home On A Monday" - The Little River Band
" I Don't Like Mondays" - The Boomtown Rats

Just a few little tunes to spark the imagination for some people's least favorite day of the week.

Well, its Riverbend Monday...the biggest party of the year moves down to M.L. King Boulevard, and Riverbenders by the thousands will be descending on the Boulevard for the Bessie Smith Strut.
Trombone Shorty from New Orleans will take the stage at 7:00pm tonight at the Bessie Smith Hall. Shorty has performed with Lenny Kravitz, Green Day, and U-2 among others. Quite a show, from what I hear. Many other entertainers will be up and down "The Boulevard" for what many say is the best night of the festival. I don't know if it's the best night, but it certainly is one of the most fun. And remember, you don't need a pin to get in The Strut...but you DO need to wear comfortable shoes and drink plenty of water. As hot & humid as it's been so far, don't be one of the heat - related casualties that invariably pop up at The Strut.

Did Paul say it would be like this ?
