Big City Rhythm & Blues Magazine in conjunction with Bluesfest International,
Windsor's first Great Lakes Blues Tour with Honeyboy Edwards and Bobby
Rush was a smashing success despite a dangerous 60 year blizzard that
hit Toronto on Sunday, 12/16/07, the last stop of the tour. Honeyboy said,
“I don’t like it, I love it!” as the tour kicked off
at Berts Warehouse in Detroit on 12/13/07 followed by sold out shows and
an induction ceremony at Canada Soluth Blues Society's Blues Museum (the
only blues museum in Canada at the Place Concord in Windsor, London, ON’s
hospitable Dawghouse Pub & Eatery and wrapping it up at Hugh’s
Room in Toronto where even with white out conditions and over a foot of
fresh snow there was a 60 person wait list.
Big thanks to Ted & Louise Boomer, Bluesfest International, Canada
South Blues Society, Leonardo & his big red van and all the blues
fans.
