Nothing But Blues

   As I hope most of you have figured out, the main objective of my trip is studying the music of the era of the British Invasion. Yesterday evening, a group of us had the chance to do such a thing. Near Oxford Circus right along Kingly Street, there is this quaint bar called "Ain't Nothing But" and it is the home to anything and everything blues related. The bar itself was about two of my living rooms back home, so it gave for a very packed house, but everyone fed off of one another's energy while listening to the fabulous live band. Performing last night was the "Living Legends" which I thought were absolute gems! It was neat to follow along with my ears and notice the twelve bar blues rhythms we have learned in class and guitar improvisations! This bar was also a place were only locals hang because it is tucked away within the city, so it was refreshing to not be surrounded by annoying tourists (yes, I've been here for a week, I can call others tourists, right?).
