I stumbled upon the most amazing blues festival. I came to see [a big name artist], and stayed for this, and this has been the better jam. I think the line up has been rawer, and truer and far closer to the source of the Delta.

I would like to thank Darryl Parker for starting this festival. I'm glad to see it expanding to 3 days and so many venues. It started out considerably smaller, but now has lots of venues and a panel discussion. As a blues talker rather than a blues performer, I really enjoy the panel discussions at [the Oxford Blues Festival.]
