There are pros and cons when working at a resort, but one of the pros is an occasional visit from famous people who are here in Colorado Springs on business or on vacation. This morning, as I was walking from my Jeep to the entrance, there were two custom-painted buses with the likeness of Jimi Hendrix and the words, "Experience Jimi Hendrix" on them. Guitar cases were being unloaded and lots of luggage. The entire band was staying at our hotel !
Well, I don't know who I saw in the lobby, but among the gentlemen who are here to perform at the Pikes Peak Center tomorrow are former members of the Doors, Los Lobos, Indigenous, and Stevie Ray Vaughan and DoubleTrouble bands. Some of the names you might recognize are Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Eric Johnson (watch his video in one of my posts), Jonny Lang, The Slide Brothers, and Dweezil Zappa. There are others, but basically, the cream of the crop in blues performers are here. Do I have a ticket to the show? No. It's killing me!
Watch a video of Jonny Lang performing "Lie To Me" HERE .
