                    The cool thing about being involved with Concert Blast is getting the opportunity to see a lot of bands that I have never seen before. One of those opportunities happened in June. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy was playing in Nashville at the Wildhorse Saloon.  I have listened to them on occasion but my son, Julian, is a huge fan.  He has several of their cds and I hear him listening to them all the time.  It was close to his birthday so when I got the chance to attend the show for a review I brought him along too.

                        It was Sunday night June 19th 2011, a Father’s Day celebration in Nashville, TN, as classic rock landed at the Wildhorse Saloon once again.  Creedence Clearwater Revisted made a Sold-Out return appearance to the Music City.  Mike Arnold, Brian Hasbrook, and Tom Thompson made room in their Father’s Day schedule to attend this rockin’ event.  Mike and Brian arrived early during the soundcheck for a scheduled interview with original Creedence Clearwater Revival members, bassist Stu Cook and drummer Doug (Cosmo) Clifford.  Then the fun continued with the CCR fans in attendance and of course the excellent concert… Which means another Concert Blast podcast!
