Bluehouse at the Cactus
I had the grand opportunity to hear Bluehouse perform twice this week. First, we drove out to Kerrville to watch them in a house concert on Saturday evening. When they announced their US tour, that was the closest they were gonna get to Austin. I immediately signed up and made a reservation at a nearby hotel...then called Diane to see if she was game. Of course she was! Then, about 2 weeks ago, they added a Cactus gig to the tour on Monday night. Cool. Since they're from Australia, we don't get to see 'em play that often. So, when I get a chance, I jump at it. Both shows were fantastic. I took a few photos at the Cactus and thought I'd share some of 'em. Actually, most of 'em.
Singing "Do Right Woman" a cappella...
Wow. Awesome. Truly. It's the last track on the One More Kiss cd. Hearing it in person can't be beat, though.
Bern...
Jacqui...
I'm sure she wasn't saying anything the least bit snarky.
Harmonizing...
Bern broke a string and performed the fastest quick-change act in history. Jacqui took advantage of the downtime to complement the lovely brown water from Shiner...
And, then they picked up without missing a beat. Impressive.
Near the end of the show...
Check out their tour dates and go see them! You will not be disappointed.
