This weekend the New York State Blues Festival took over Clinton Square for the sixteenth year. 12-thousand people were estimated to be at the show yesterday. There was no charge to get into the show, just the call for donations.
Lenny Terenzi of Binghamton is the guitarist and bandleader for the North Carolina based band Mighty Lester. For the musicians at the festival....it's all about respecting each other's music especially when it comes to the headliner and five time Grammy award winner, Buddy Guy, Terenzi said.
"For today, I'm here for Buddy Guy He's been around forever. He's one of the last few original guys, you know, still alive," Terenzi said.
Attendance is up since last year and this year's festival was the most successful ever, Bernie Clarke, the director for the Blues Festival said.
