Oh man, this is a little embarrassing, but I'm just going to go with it. Many, many, many years ago my friend, Suzanne and I lived back east for a few months. During this time we saw The B Willie Smith Band play in Boston. We enjoyed the show (OK, we looooved them) and decided to make it our quest to see them as many times as possible. Over the next several months I am proud to say, we accomplished our goal. There have been several moments since that time that I have been nostalgic and wishing that I had a little B Willie to listen to. During one of these moments I did some googling to find out if this was possible; downloads, cd's, anything. After being added to a emailing list, asked to join their facebook page, that nothing was available. The recording company owns the rights to their music, and they will not release it. But, they were doing a reunion show in Connecticut.
Brian being as sweet as ever (and feeling pressure to get a Mother's Day gift) decided if he could bring B Willie to me, he would bring me to B Willie and surprised me with a trip to Connecticut.
While there we enjoyed: good food
beautiful beaches
and fantastic music.Pretty much the best Mother's Day gift ever!!
