Here there sweet family,
Tickets go on sale tomorrow (Saturday, Sept. 22) for the Sarasota Blues Festival which is being held November 3 in beautiful Sarasota, FL. This is by far our favorite blues fest, as much a part of our yearly calendar as the Beacon in March, and Wanee in the spring. Why? Well, the calibre of entertainment, fans, venue, weather, vendors, etc, are (just like the hair of a werewolf drinking a Pina Colada a Trader Vic’s) … perfect, a-ooo!

Artists scheduled to perform this year include:
Oteil & the Peacemakers
Mighty Lester
Zac Harmon
The All Stars
Conrad Oberg
and headliner, Buddy Guy, who put on an a-may-zen show at the Durham Blues Festival a couple of weeks ago.
Meanwhile, the Allman Brothers Band may be off the road, but Gregg Allman and Oteil Burbridge are shakin’ it up all over the country:
