It was indeed a pleasure to attend the 2025 Pinetop Boogie & Crawfish Boil at Ground Zero Blues Club in Clarksdale, Mississippi. This event benefits the Pinetop Perkins Foundation whose primary mission is “ to provide encouragement and support for youth and young people at the beginning of their musical career; and help provide care and safety for elderly musicians at the twilight of their career”. Before the festivities began, I made my usual stop down the street to my favorite store Cat Head to listen a bit to Terry “Harmonica” Bean and purchase a few CD. Afterward, I pushed off to Hambone Gallery to hear a great set of music from Guitar Frenchie before returning to Ground Zero for the brunt of the day.

Acts at Ground Zero included Bob Stroger, Bob Corritore, Billy Flynn, John Primer, Tas Cru, Johnny Burgin, Kevin Burt, Tony Braunagel, Jim Pugh, Billy Price, Anthony Geraci, Thornetta Davis, Oscar Wilson, Billy Gibson, Wyly Bigger, David Julia, Heather Crosse, Lee Williams, Lala Craig, Anthony Sherrod, Deak Harp, Six String Andrew, Liz Lottmann & Delta Divas, Steve Kolbus & the Clarksdale Blues Revue, The Pinetoppers. Christone Kingfish even made an unexpected appearance. It was an extraordinary show!
