saxsymbol writes  On Friday, June 7th, a red-hot blues and R&B act stormed the stage at the ABATE (American Bikers Aiming Toward Education) Evergreen Park Benefit. While the band was undeniably smokin', there is one small problem: we were billed under the name Whiskey Brothers, which may or may not be a cool sounding name, but belongs to my previous band. As your pal, and purveyor of blue notes, I'm askin' for your help: We need a new name for our blues band!

| Anybody Can Play The Blues, Right? |

saxsymbol writes There's an interesting phenomenon in the commercial music scene today! Otherwise sensible musicians, the sort who would never, say, just decide to go after that chamber music gig, because they know they're not qualified for it, can't seem to find the same restraint when it comes to our beloved blues! Now, don't get me wrong, blues hounds like me firmly believe that the blues is, in fact, a pretty universal musical language.( English is also a pretty universal language, with a significant portion of the world using it as a first -or second- language. I'm not sure that means that everybody can be a poet, either!)

| T.N.T.Blues At Whites In Saginaw |
|
saxsymbol writes 
I recently got an invitation from Saginaw guitar monster Matt Bessey to attend an open mic blues jam at a Saginaw bar I'd never heard of. As an aspiring Blues Hound, I'm hard pressed to skip any opportunity to play with the proverbial big boys. So, with more than a little trepidation, I loaded up my sax and headed to Saginaw from my digs in Lapeer.
