Where's the Rose City?

Hi Matt F

La Luna Lounge has gone accoustic with Jame Anthony. Before that I took a whole band there once along with some other people. In effect, we hosted the jam. But because of the restaurant there was no drums until after 10 or when the restaurant is empty. While I had fun there, they were badly managed. Twice I arranged for musicians to come down only to hear that the jam was cancelled for that week. I gave up.

Roadhouse Thursdays..


Like music to my ears.

DAlton going to be the cooler? lol
We know Wade Garret is now dead, as Brad Wesley killed his ass. lol

Maybe Jeff Healey will sit in? Count me in.. LOL

(Don't go in the back, as that one guy is fing the under age girls in the back room)

Hi all

I've set up a Jam at Boston Manor in Burlington (corner of Appleby Line and Fairview St) for Sunday, March 1, 3:00 to 7:00)) pm. All invited (19+). This is a fund raiser for Plan Canada (Formerly Foster Parents Plan) to support their work in the developing world. There is a minimum $5 donation at the door, more welcome and donations of $25 or more will receive a receipt from Plan Canada (mailed). Drums, amps, P.A. and piano will be supplied. If you are a musician we will get you on stage. See www.rocknbluesjam.com for more information. Wizened Old Men will be hosting the jam. While this is primarily a rock and roll band, with the addition of Bryon Bender on Harp it becomes a steaming blues band.

Hey MisSpent Youth. Thanks for the info you provided;). This really helps me out!

You are most welcome. Add me on Facebook as Denise McLeod. I have lists posted there that I maintain and comment when attending jams. If you have any questions about them, ask me and you will get an honest response.

Any chance we can get you and some of your friends out to the Jam in Burlington on March 1? We would love to see you play.

P.S. I like your bass equipment (David Eden head Ampex cabinets)

Well Burlington is a little far for us to traval Especially in the winter. Give me the details etc. and we may swing by afterall. We only like full equipped jams including drums though.

Hi Denise

The Rock 'n Blues Jam for Kids is Sunday, March 1, 3:00 to 7:00. It may go later if there are people waiting to get on stage.

Drums, P.A., amps, and keyboard are provided. Just bring your guitar.

All money goes to Plan Canada to help with 3rd world development. There is a minimum $5 donation at the door. Receipts will be issued for donation of $25 or more.

It is at Boston Manor 4460 Fairview St at Appleby Line. From Toronto take the QEW (or 407 if you have money) and exit at Appleby Line. Go south. Fairview is just past the railway underpass and Boston Manor is in the plaza on the S.W. corner.

See www.rocknbluesjam.com for details.
