Hey brother, I thank you for allowing me to get my Blues fix on'! I like what I'm doing with my current band but I truly miss playing the Blues and you guys give me that opportunity. By the way, I love the fact you guys play Gary Moore's "STILL GOT THE BLUES FOR YOU". The fact that you do that tune and so many others, makes you #1 in my book. - PEACE -
Thanks for the kind words. I'd love to do that again, with you and your band. Just let me know when and where would be a good time. Next time I'll bring my other horns and stage grear. By the way, I really dig your energy, stage pressence and name. Where did you come up with Rufus T. Firefly...L.O.L. - PEACE!
Glad you liked the tunes :) I really dig your record, I've been listening to it a lot lately. You guys always put on such a cool show - you've got such great stage presence! I hope to check out one of your shows again soon.
Hi Rufus, I enjoyed the last couple tunes that I was able to experience at last night Casa show in Dormont. I can see how The Blues Junkies provide the antidote for addiction to your fanbase - I'll make it a point to check you guys out again sometime for sure. Dave Yoho - a Junkie fan now
Hi Rufus, It's a pleasure to have you and your impressive resume on the PLM network. Your music genre description is my favorite on here. peace, Dave Yoho
