Morning to all the Tauranga Blues Jammers. The weather may have been god awful last night but the music and the musicians were brilliant. Thanks to Brood and the two young lads strutting their stuff; The Fine Cadillacs who I was privileged to fill in as their drummer; DMG - always in fine form; Kaos Blues Revue Band; Craig Norma;, John Michaelz Band - with Curtis, Mike Kirk, Mike Butler and Simon Mottram, and finally The DHB band with Adam Pendred, Denise Hyde, Beano, Ken Green, and featuring the ever talented Stew Martin on lead guitar. On behalf of the house band, I would like to thank all those who donated at the door and to our gorgeous two ladies Cheryl and Lesley who collect said donations. ‘Til next month then, Cheers.

‘Tis the morning after the morning after The Tauranga Blues Jam. Another awesome night of amazingly talented musicians - starting with Craig Norman, Janne and her band, Murray Hancox and the Horn Dogs with Paul Smith on lead guitar, The Fine Cadillacs, Hilary, Kaos Blues Revue Band, DMG, Roots Band, The Hangar Band, and newbies The Brood.

Also, thanks to Cheryle for collection donations at the door.

And let’s not forget Chill Factor (Ken Green, Mike Butler, Glenn Potier, Gary Harvey, and Simon Fenlon) who are there well before anybody arrives and still there long after everyone has gone.

Unfortunately, one muso couldn't wait for his timeslot and left without saying a word!!! We try to put people in a time slot that they would like but it's not always possible.

Anyway, see you all next month.

Cheers

Just a heads up to all the blues jammers and supporters: The Tauranga Blues Jam is on this Wednesday 13th Aug 7pm at Tauranga Sports Fishing Club, Sulphur Point.
We have a full line up for the night so it may pay to get there a bit earlier to secure seating.
All welcome.
Cheers. Simon & Ken

Hi to all the Tauranga Blues Jammers and all the supporters. A great night of music on Wednesday, and as usual, a really supportive crowd. Many thanks to Gary Harvey for opening the evening and then doing a great job with the house band Chill Factor. Cheers to Craig Norman, Richard Allen and The Fine Cadillacs. It was really nice to see Roy Hudson there too with Sean Lurman doing a few originals. Thanks to Steve Belcher, and to The Tim Armstrong band also doing some originals. Awesome stuff!
Thanks again to Cheryle Everard and Lesley Sinclair for collecting donations on the door.
On behalf of Chill Factor, see you all next month.
P S Don’t forget to book your spot early.
Cheers Simon.
