Last night the first tour stop of the Full Flex Express Tour kicked off in Ottawa as part of Ottawa's Bluesfest. Bluesfest usually offers 4 stages with a full lineup compliment for fans, but for the opening night of the festival, only the mainstage was active as the Full Flex Express cadre took over.

Ottawa fans showed up in droves as an estimated 25,000 came to see the show. For a Wednesday night, this is quite an impressive feat. For those that can't wait to check out the Full Flex Express Tour when it arrives at a Canadian city near you, feast your eyes on some of the very first pictures of the tour below:
