Too many guitar based bands, are essentially rehashing a similar, broad style and so the music can lack the adventure of the new musics from the most famous adventurous eras.
People identify, the essence of blues music in various ways. I think it is more than a thing pertaining only to enslaved Black people struggling to survive. It is also about the "War between the sexes."
If there is an intrinsic "Blues Muse" It may be deeper than the war between the sexes...
I think anyone hearing this story would side with you. I'm sure people who know you would be glad to testify as to the situation, including the Police, probably any Judge or Jury, would see it your way.
