The Story So Far
The update for bluesman Bryan Lee included so many dates that the Teamster charged with unloading the truck had to get fitted for a truss. With dates ranging from July 3 in London, Ontario, and stretching to New Year’s Eve in Destin, Florida, and 81 stops sandwiched in between you just got wonder when Mr. Lee has time to be blue. Among the dates are multi-night engagements in Panama City, Florida (July 24 – 25), Destin, Florida (August 1 – 2), Colorado Springs (September 3 – 4) and Key West at the Green Parrot December 5 – 7.
