Bluesfest: Nick Jonas

So, Nick Jonas! Best known, of course, as one-third of the Jonas Brothers (I'm assuming there are no non-performing brothers. Nick is a showbusiness veteran, having been on stage since he was about 7, including a number of big Broadway productions. Needless to say there was a number of young admirers parked in front of the Bluesfest main stage awaiting his appearance.

Nick rocks the Tele.



Guitar action with former New Power Generation man Sonny T.!



Bass action! Sorry, I don't know the player.



The crowd goes moderately wild.



Nick sings!



Time to get ride of the jacket (yes, there were squeals).



No offence to Jonas and Co., but I decided pretty early on that the Honey Island Swamp Band sounded more like my thing ...

• Show reminder: The Dead Zone, Sad Guru, and Miss Polygamy play The Rainbow; the Elmdale hosts an all-ages Christmas concert with Jadea Kelly and David Gavan Baxter in the afternoon; later that night Dirty Little Secret takes the stage.
