Billy Boy Arnold & Bob Welsh, backstage at Yoshi's
Last night, Jay and I were sitting in Yoshi's watching my brother play the guitar and the piano. He was part of the house band for Mark Hummel's annual Harmonica Blues Blowout.I was so proud of him and moved to tears that our family is so blessed to have my brother.
He asked me to take a photo of him backstage with Billy Boy Arnold. That is the one photo that came out blurry, and I feel so bad about it! Bobby told me last night, "One of the first blues records I ever bought was one by Billy Boy Arnold. I never thought I'd be playing with him one day".
We'll always have the blues. For a talented musician like Bobby, it's probably one of the least likely genres to get you a recording contract. They do it for the love. They have my utmost respect.

Chris and I are so proud of Bob. Not only is he Chris' best friend but he is also Rayleens Godfather. (He does a pretty good Brando impression when he holds her). He is the worlds best blues guitar player
