House of Blues

From the visit to House of Blues I learned that Blues music was originally from Africa. In the 19^th century, Africans were sold and brought to the United States. Blues music was originated from work songs and shouts in African-American communities of primarily the deep south of the United States. Later, it generated other music genres like Jazz, R&B, Rock and roll, etc. Therefore Blues music is the beginning of many mainstream music genres. Moreover, the band gave us a really good live performance. At first I didn’t realize the special audiences were handicapped because they were dancing and singing with the music, even better than us. They had a really good time, and the performers on the stage liked them too. They created a very happy atmosphere, but we, physically perfect people, could only stay quietly upstairs and watch them have a good time. Other than the history of Blues music, I think the more important thing I learned was being happy is really simple that we should just concentrate on the things we do have, not the things we wish we should have.
