Friday Night Blues


Since I had a day off from my job at the DU Bookstore today, I decided to bike downtown to Denver's 16th Street Mall this afternoon.  As I walked past Katie Mullen's Irish Pub, I noticed there was a blues group on the outside patio, entertaining the "happy hour" crowd.  They were pretty good, too, so I stayed and listened for a while. I've never considered blues music a staple of Irish pubs, but it makes sense when you think about it. After reading "Angela's Ashes,"  I can see why the Irish might sing the blues - as well as listen to them - once in a while.
