And so it begins.
After running an irregular event at a regular venue (LindyBooty),..
And after running an regular event at a regular venue (The Rent Party),..
I decide to run an irregular event at a irregular venue..
xBlues has it's first excursion, this one to Land's End for one of my favorite hidden spots in San Francisco. A treasure map is made and gear is hauled a great distance for the best Blues Party I've had since LindyBooty. Hallelujah.

We carry gear back,
