Reet's got 'dem "what the fuck are we doing in this joint" blues...

After exiting the Chart Room, we headed over the Bourne Bridge for the Onset Bay Blues Club, which holds blues jams Sunday-Wednesday each week. This club was recommended by blogger Bill Ives on his Portals and KM blog. When we finally arrived, after some directions mismanagement, we found one table of blues patrons, three musicians (two guitars and a keyboard player), a woman with a tamborine (band chick) and a ponytailed bartender. B.B. King looked down over us from the side wall. The Reet was not impressed. One of the guitarists, Calvin Jackson, was our blues jam host. Things were pretty slow at first, as long blues jams can be a bit tiresome to non blues fanatics. But we ordered a round, sat down and listened awhile - and things perked up (a couple vocals helped- JH with a good call on Tracy Chapman's "Talkin' About a Revolution"). More people dropped in. And a young kid (circa 20-21) arrived and volunteered to fill in on bass and the drums on a nice version of "Stormy Monday." Bathrooms were interesting - imagine opening the door and having to actually squeeze in by stepping over the toilet. Smallest bathrooms EVER! Not to worry, we will be back (of course, we can't tell The Reet where we're going).
