|Saturday was a “Lawrence Birthday Party” to celebrate its 150th birthday, as a city, I guess. Things started off with a parade through downtown.|
|
|After the parade there were activities at South Park including various performances. There was a shortened version of Ballad of Black Jack, some dancers, some singers and, of course, some Indians.|
|
In the evening was a concert at South Park. It was dark so I didn’t get photos. The main event was Kelley Hunt and she was totally amazing. We grabbed up her new CD “New Shade of Blue” and got it autographed. I mean, she was fantastic. I was trying to figure out what kind of music it was. It was some sort of blues-boogie-R&B. Whatever it was, it was great. I gathered she was either born in Lawrence or lived here sometime.
