Yesterday, I finished up a week long project on blues and soul musician Darrell Nulisch. I finally managed to set up a time through email with his publicist--who is actually based out of Atlanta, Georgia--so it was kind of weird for me to have to jump through so many hoops to talk to someone, since most people I talk to are locals who are familiar with the paper. After I talked to him on Monday--he was just getting back from Europe from being on tour--I did some background research. From what I gathered, he seems to be kind of a big deal in the world of soul/blues music, so that was kind of cool to talk to him. He apparently played with Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, and will be playing several dates with James Cotton in New York at Lincoln Center, as well as at the National Blues and Soul Festival. He's also nominated for a bunch of awards at the National Blues Awards.
On another note, The JROTC got back from their trip to Daytona Beach, and they did fairly well. Most of the divisions and teams came in fifth/sixth, and ninth overall. The Physical Fitness Team is headed for San Diego, CA, in the middle of this month. Their coach was extremely proud of them--apparently, the entire team was composed of mostly sophomores and freshman. That turnout for awards is pretty good, comparatively, because none of the kids have a lot of experience.
Look out for my Darrell Nulisch article and my article about Cape Ann TV in tomorrow's (May 6th) paper!
