Where is this being held at?


My wife said they couldn't use the River Center because of the people there, so it is a block party right in front of WAFB

The drummer who played with BTE was the one who had been with them for years. It was Travis "air" McNabb. He quit to play with Sugarland. Not sure if he's back with them since Sugarland is no longer or if he just played this show with them.

Quiana Lynell has the most amazing voice.
When she sings with the Baton Rouge Symphony Orchestra during Christmas it will give your chillbumps, chillbumps.

Who was the chick that played the fiddle? Just saw her in passing on the tv at the gym but it sounded like she could play.

Sonny Landreth is considered a slide guitar virtuoso. I have seen him play a dozen times through the years. He is a great talent, by many accounts.

Problem is, when you go out (to whatever music venue, and no matter how good he is) you can only listen to so much slide guitar, and then you are ready for something else, or want to leave. Especially so for women. I grew up playing guitar, but I can listen to only so much of it instrumentally, i.e. Yngwie Malmstein, Joe Satriani, whatever.
