You love yourself some blues. You need yourself some blues. You’ll get yourself some blues. If you head to The Blue Side, that is. Indeed, Saturday night marks Reggie Wayne Morris’s return to the bar on Bentz Street, and if you have a little blue in you, that will, for sure, be the place to be. Sadly, Carroll Creek will not be the place to be tonight as Alive @ Five is canceled due to the weather. The good news for Freddie Long fans, however, is that he will now kick off next year’s slate, when the summer concert series begins in 2019. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for the weather holding out one week from Saturday as The Thing rocks and rolls its way through downtown Frederick. Again. Fingers crossed. As for this weekend, you’ll have some DJ Two Teks. You’ll have some jazz this evening. You’ll have some Doc Marten … and all those Flannels. You’ll have some Knotty G’s. You’ll have some Let There Be Rock. You’ll have some Jack Funk. You’ll have some Safe Harbor. You’ll have some Toad The Wet Sprocket (on Sunday). You’ll have some Chris Smaha. And, naturally, you’ll have some My Life On Hold. Because honestly: Who’s life isn’t on hold at this point? Rain, rain, go away. Viva … October.
