Nice!  Enjoyed it.  And Gabriel ends it with a huge yawn

Sweet Home Chicago ~ MICK hands Obama the mike and he sings it. That decides it, Obama gets my vote!

I caught a glimpse of Don Was, Karis, and the adoreable little Lucas. MICK brought his offspring to the event. Karis isl American, (I think she is super smart and graduated law school) and MICK is grooming Lucas to be a bluesman. I love MICK's parenting skills, rubbing elbows with the right people will get you everywhere!

And they all thought Paul McCartney was the shit when he played there.
Ha!

He's a bit of a scene stealer that one. Remember that bit of serious nose-drilling he was doing to himself in 'Being Mick'?

He'll grow up to be the black sheep of that entire brood, I reckon.

Karis is English. She did indeed graduate from Yale, though.

I think luxy is right - that may well have been Gabriel, not Lucas.
