Kevin - there are so many things going on in downtown St Pete - it's good we have several parks for rotating the events, so that the grass stays green.
Russell - Austin is certainly a great city for music, as well as lots of other things. Hope there will be some interesting things going on when the Institute has its conference there in October.
Jeff - I'm sure the locals in Carlsbad check your site for information - and your posts make Carlsbad so appealing that I imagine many people become locals.
Sharon - The blues festival always draws large crowds - it is one of many great things offered in downtown St Petersburg!
I hope the TomKats are there this year they are a great blues band.
Jim - thanks for the recommendation.
Can you get Robben Ford back? Great band!
