Re: Stevie Ray Vaughn
Stevie Ray died 20 years ago today
20 years ago today, I didn't go to his final concert at Alpine Valley because I was bucky and half drunk when the gal who had said tickets asked if she could give me the tickets in exchange for some of the $ that she owed me. In return, I never got ANY of the $ and I missed out on a piece of history.... not just the Clapton, SRV, Robert Cray concert... not JUST the fact that it was SRV's final night on earth, but the all-start jam at the end of the concert.
A 20 minute encore/jam of Clapton, SRV, Robert Cray, Jimmie Vaughan and Buddy guy jamming out Sweet Home Chicago.
RIP Stevie, I missed that concert and I've been missing you ever since.
