Bobby Rush Wows the Crowd at Hill Country Picnic

Bobby Rush is a living legend of the blues, and his appearance at the North Mississippi Hill Country Picnic on Friday was enthusiastically received by the crowd. Performing with just his guitar, Rush told a lot of his best-known stories and sang a number of his somewhat-naughty songs before being joined on stage by Kenny Brown, the host of the festival. This was, as far as I know, Rush’s first appearance at the picnic, and it was a good one.
