Duluth News Tribune – No Passport, No Problem

From: Duluth News Tribune

David Gogo of Canada found himself stuck in a Toronto airport Friday night trying to fly into the U.S. so he could get to Duluth for his 6:45 p.m. penultimate act at Bayfront Blues Festival. The only problem is that Gogo didn’t have his passport, a requirement to fly into the U.S.

So after a frenzied night of customs hassles, Gogo eventually flew from Toronto to Thunder Bay and then rented a car and drove into the U.S. at Pigeon River since the passport rule isn’t in effect yet for driving into the U.S.

His extra guitars ended up in Detroit without him, but Gogo and his band made it to Duluth just fine. He even praised the breakfast he stopped for at a Grand Marais restaurant.

The Riverwalk Blues & Music Fest Debuts to South Florida Canadian Award Winning Guitarist DAVID GOGO

Who is David Gogo? He started playing the Blues on his guitars when he was a teenager and heard Howlin’ Wolf and Son House. Once he discovered Stevie Ray Vaughan, Gogo’s die was cast. In the past 10 years, Gogo has released four records. He’s a perennial nominee in Canada’s Blues Music Awards, the Maples, including copping Canada’s 2005 Blues Guitarist of the Year. He has opened for the likes of Buddy Guy, George Thorogood, Jimmy Vaughan, and Roomful of Blues. And Real Blues magazine named this record, Skeleton Key, the Blues/Rock CD of the Year. Take it from me; this is one record worth owning.
