More information on the rock 'n blues jam for kids can be found at this site. www.rocknbluesjam.com I am updating it regularly as more musicians and bands have agreed to play. Note, not all the musicians have asked to be listed. Some just want to come in, play a few songs and then sit back and listen to other musicians. If you are in the Burlington, Hamilton, Oakville Mississauga area, come on out, have a good time and support third-world development.

Hey Bluesbass.

Its John the drummer from Octane Rising and we're on your list for coming out on Sunday. We're really looking to forward to being part of the "rock" portion of the jam.

One question for you. What sort of guitar rig etc will be there? Our axeman is wondering what he'll have to work with.

Any ideas?

As mentioned, amps, drums, keyboard and full P.A. will be provided. Guitar amps include Fender Twin Reverb, Fender Delux and a Traynor. If your lead guitar is looking for effects, he should probably bring these himself as we don't use a lot.

Thanks to all who attend. Pictures are now up at www.rocknbluesjam.com
Over $1,000 was raise, some great music was played and a good time was had by all.
