You like the blues and you don't mind rain. I know this because you're not in the process of moving to Tahiti. Saturday, directly following the Daffodil Parade, the Gray Sky Blues Music Festival will kick off at venues all over Tacoma, like the Swiss, Stonegate Pizza, Indochine, the Harmon Brewery, Paddy Coyne's and Cutter's Point Coffee. Performers include Sean Carney, the Blue Mongols, the Randy Oxford Band, Blues Redemption and a boatload more. Find a complete schedule at tacomaevents.com.
