The music of Sonny Terry was what really inspired me to seriously learn harmonica. I was just sitting here bored and typed Sonny Terry into Wikipedia. Turns out we share a birthday. He also grew up not too far from where I did. About 40 minutes away. Little things amuse me, so I was excited to see that. Just thought I'd share. Take it easy!

My wife and I got married on the day Tupac Shakur got shot. He died seven days later, and this will be our 7 year anniversary. .....may not be around next year if there's a pattern.

Well, like I said, I'm amused by small things and it was like 2 in the morning here and I couldn't sleep like always so I thought it was cool. Maybe when I go home I'll see if there's some kind of blues museum or something down that way.
