It was a day of blue paint, and we changed the color of our back yard for this Sunday's birthday party. Even painted the grass!

 

Bluesguy's Birthday Jam #5 will kick off at 3pm on Sunday in my back yard. Appearing with me and the New Jack Hippies at Bluesguy's Rock-N-Roll House party will be Opie Hendrix, Tracy Conover, Jimmy Deen, Carrie Ann Buchanan, EP Vallejo and special guests Z-ROCKS, CHANGO JACKSON & VERTIGO BLUE. Also rumoured to be in attendance may be Don Walsh (Rusted Shut), Dogman (Hightailers) and a few more surprises.

 

Additional Hippies who have asked directions so they could come and play, include Lion808 (Dubtex, Cozmonix), Ian Varley (Drop Trio), Stephen Bogle (The Hunger), Scott Daniels (Carolyn Wonderland Band), and Randy Wall (Hightailers, DB, Goodtrain)

 

There is no cover charge. Bring the kids.

 

Details and directions can be found by clicking the birthday poster at www.bluesguy.com

 

Bring your own!
