The band that I am help promote and I will be coming down from Kalamazoo, Michigan. The quartet is named the Cross Roads Blues Band--the Resurrection. They are going to be representing the Detroit Blues Society. This will be their fourth trip to Memphis. And they are psyched. They will have their game faces on and will be ready to burn up "Disneyland."
After a dismal showing for Elvis Presley's birthday over the weekend, "Disneyland" needs a swift kick in the...
I made 4 stops between Club 152 and the Rum Boogie but I was able to catch some Cross Roads Blues Band. They had more dance floor action than any others I had seen. NICE!
hey Chad,

My wife and I will be going down. We won't be competing (my bassist is playing with the LI Blues Society entry, Frank LaTorre) but we'll be down there to jam and network. We got Big Blue tickets (woo woo) and are really looking forward to it - we'll be there from the 19th through the 24th. Where can we get info on where to jam and make the best use of our time?

I forgot to mention I'll also be jammin' at Superior Bar and Restaurant on Wednesday from 4 to 8pm. Stop in for some dinner. Happy Hour All Day!

The Memphis Flyer always has an extensive list of places and stuff to do.

Then there is of course the official IBC schedule.

Hitman- take a look at my website and let me know if you need anything gift-wise. You might even want one yourself.

Hey Kevin,
Sorry, I didn't see your post till just now. Thanks for letting me know - I'm bookmarking your site, Beautiful stuff, but prices would be nice (instead of "less than $200"). When I clicked on a piece, it brought me to Photobucket.

My band will be competing. As winners of the "Journey to Memphis" competition, we'll be representing the Cascade Blues Association, out of Portland, Oregon at the International Blues Challenge. This will be our first trip to the IBC and we're incredibly excited! Look for The Karen Lovely Band on Beale St! We'll be the ones wide eyed & full of wonder.

"DAVINA AND THE VAGABONDS are a must see,,, trust me!"
I can attest to that!

I don't know of any specific plans but I'll certainly be in the area, probably playing more gigs. An LBW meet and greet sounds like a good idea.
Unfortunately it's not in the cards for me to attend this year's IBC. Although I would love to go cover it in person, I'm going to have to do it from home in 2010.

I am, however going to be posting updates on my website, and if anyone would like to help provide coverage from the event, I'll post it and give you full credit.

I am hoping to make it to the Blues Music Awards in May, though. After listening to the 2009 BMA's on Sirius/XM, it's a must for me in 2010.

To all those making the trip, I wish you safe travels and great Blues

I'll be there with my band The Twisters out of Vancouver, BC and Yukon. Were looking forward to this and will be there with bells on. The White Rock Blues Society is our big daddy for this event. Looking forward to meeting some of you down there.

You guys were great! It was an absolute pleasure watching you at the FedEx show, and I'm sorry I didn't get to catch you later. You should have been in the finals, but there was a lot of talk about you among attendees anyway.
