On The Waterfront..Ellsworth Style
Well I bet a lot of you good folks did not realize that Ellsworth has its own Waterfront Concert series! Friday evenings at 6 PM during the summer down at the public landing on Water Street, down at the gazebo there are groups playing for an hour or two...free to the public. Last night was local folk/country singer Jimmy Barnes spreading his tales of life in Maine and parts beyond, ya know Florida, Arizona, Mexico and the like. Jimmy has been entertaining people across the states for years and shows no sign of slowing down. I remember Jimmy when he was Captain of the "Dolphin" fishing boat out of Bar Harbor in the very early 70's. He was even at that time, a salty soul. A week or so ago, Eric Green was down there with another group with his unique blues tunes. Boy, if you ever get to go and see Eric, do it! Bluesy, swampy, funky downeast rockin..love it! SO next Friday, drop on by the waterfront about 6 and see what cookin, and oh yea, bring your lawnchair, hat and a pair of shades!
