Adams Avenue Roots Festival, San Diego, California, April 30, 2005

Next up, the beer garden for some Robin Henkel. Energetic, funny, entertaining...and serious as hell about the Blues, Robin doesn't so much play a set as he holds court. He played two sets in a row when the next group failed to show. Very few people got up to leave. The man is riveting - you never know what he's going to do next. I couldn't quite tell if Robin played the music or if it played him. Regardless, he's a fantastic performer. Definitely worth seeing!
