colin_lake_tbois_blues_fest_jm_040613_007Probably one of the best shows I've seen Colin Lake and “friends” play, top three in my favorites ODF the fest for sure......Colin's shows are always special for me, not only because of Colin's raw talent, but seeing my friend Mark Adams holding court on the keys/piano is some serious lagniappe.....even treated to a Bill Richards birthday party on stage at TBOIS.....sweet!!
