Wondering if there are any blues you want to hear this weekend? Wonder no more.
Many local bands are at the usual spots, and there are a few special events worth mentioning. I posted yesterday about the Jill West and Blues Attack CD release party for "Headline Blues" tomorrow ight at Cefalo's in Carnegie (Cefalo's is a former church. What better place to hear the devil's music?)
Alas, also on Saturday night, the Blues Society of Western Pa is holding one of its Blues Night Out events, this one at Paparazzi's on the South Side, with Billy the Kid and the Regulators. The society is trying to introduce members and fans to different bands at different venues throughout the region.
Tonight, Moondog's in Blawnox has a special show, featuring West Coast blues guitarist Tommy Castro and the East Coast rocking Nighthawks, meeting at what Moondog's is billing as a Blues & BBQ night. Sounds tasty.
Blues gods?
Here's a nice review of a recent Eric Clapton - Steve Winwood concert, in which they crank out mostly fine blues, and bring out Buddy Guy for their encore.
