Default blues gig

Ureout. Thanks. Have to check this group when they are in town. Guess the squares can't afford a full band but would be nice once in a while. Even with a box there are some wonderful singers around. Last year one of the clubs I belong went near Treasure Island on the Gulf. At one of the restaurants by the water, there was a guy, Cliff Cassidy, who I thought was terrific. He was a singer/songwriter and I had to buy his CD. Wish he would come to the Villages.

Abraham Lincoln has been incorrectly attributed to this quote, but DID say something similar. Exchange the word "fool" where ever
you see "please" in this quote and now you have the original quote by Lincoln:

"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time"

The Lincoln quote also sounds like something PT Barnum would have said. Not doubting your post, just remembering what a showman he was.
