Howdy folks. Just a reminder about the new blues jam show at the Twin Oaks Tavern in Penngrove tonite with the West Coast Rollers All Stars. Yours truly, Ron...
It starts at 5pm-ish. 1st jam was yesterday, hosted by The Joint Chiefs(yet another local band I'd never heard of). Was pretty good. I did two tunes with...
We missed a few bi-monthly gigs at The Tradewinds when they were closed down. This will be the first time in six months that we will be back. We're pumped up....
... While sound can be challenging at JJ's given its unique long hall layout, at least one man there has run the sound for years and seems to know how to dial...
"I forgot about the abysmal and schizoid JJ's acoustics, and I barely cut through." There's a page on the JJ's Web site that provides tips on playing there. ...
Hi Scott/Phil, I must issue a belated thank you, publicly. Last night while at Fog Bank's jam in Capitola, I spoke to a guitar player who drove 30 miles north...
... About harp players...<g> I'm always thrilled, and it doesn't happen often, when the guitar player asks me to turn down. I'm seriously tempted to line out...
Hey Frankie! How are ya? Say don't you play tomorrow in Todos Santos Plaza in Concord??? If so, wouldn't it be a good idea to maybe start some bluesfest...
Unfortunately, there was no sound man. I think it was more a case of being onstage with 2 other guitars, plus a sax player--very little sonic space left for a...
... player ... just ... the ... bars ... I used to do an acoustic gig in a place that had a decimeter. If it lit up the bartender would shine a flashlight at...
... First of all, I'll ignore that harp player comment. Secondly, JJ's sound demons are most likely easily exorcised. JJ's in San Jose was the first blues club...
I read with interest the post's about the Jam's at the Mojo lounge and Murphy's law. Its good that there are a few places left. I,vegone to The Mojo Lounge as...
... last ... came ... I still remember that do-or-die jam from 2 Sundays ago and the great time I had. A female vocalist made the trip from San Francisco and...

I believe her brother's name was Alvin. As the drummer for her numbers, he introduced himself to several players. Hopefully this helps someone identify these...
Please forgive my ignorance, but who is Reggie Harvey and where is his jam? I'm not likely to be there, but others might want to know and go. The "Bay Area"...
Deb, Reggie runs a Sunday jam at Skip's Tavern, 453 Cortland Avenue, SF, 415-282-3456 (Bernal Heights, SF). This one's been going for awhile and it looks like...
Entering the Tradewinds early I found Willy Jordan setting up his drums. Damn, it was good to see Willy, and at the `Winds too. David Schrader passed me...
"Little Milton" is one of those names I've heard repeatedly, always favorably, that I've been meaning to learn more about. Upon following this combination of...
Nice tribute to Little Milton, Glenn. Check out his Guitar Man CD--one of the all-time best, IMO. His website hasn't been changed since the strokes (not...
Thanks Stan!! You always come through. That's right in Lucretia's neighborhood, so maybe she knows about it. I've heard of Skip's, but never been there....
Some people have a love / hate relationship with Skip's, but I've spent some pleasant afternoons hanging out there. Reggie and the bar staff are friendly and...
Gotta admit that my Little Milton memories are firmly fixed in the sixties. (I think) It's all tied up with cruising around with the radio tuned to KDIA and...
