Blind Willie Blues
Where were you in 1986? Ronald Reagan was president. William Perry and the Chicago Bears enjoyed "The Super Bowl Shuffle." The Dow Jones Industrial Average was under 2,000. Jonny Lang was 5 years old. And Blind Willie's was opening its doors in Virginia-Highland.
More than 6,500 nights of live music later, Blind Willie's celebrated its 18th anniversary this year, and the Blind Willie's house band, the Shadows, still backs many of the performers.
