Blues News From Portsmouth October 2009


Well it's not quite October yet but I thought I'd get the newletter out on
time for once!

Just like to say thanks to all the people that turned up at The Rose &
Crown, Charlbury, on Staurday, and made one of the best gigs of the year so
far. I had a great time playing for you all!



Before I list the blues gigs I'm involved in this month I'd like to point
you in the direction of a great blues event being organised by Bob Long. 

It's not till November but features the great guitar player Bob Brozman
heres an extract from Bob message to me.....

| As part of his UK tour in November, Bob Brozman is doing a slide guitar
| "workshop" class at 3pm on Sat 28 November and a concert in the evening on

| King Acoustics LLP, in Kingsclere, where we make and repair guitars. The
