....................................................
"Rock the Blues" was an idea that I've had for several years. It was not until recently that I had made the decision to promote it. I've been tied to both the rock and blues communities on a regular basis since the early 1990's. I produced music based weekly TV shows on cable access in the Seattle area from 1992 through 2002. The shows included live video performances and interviews with local as well as national acts.
I found it interesting that rock musicians and blues musicians were very similar in talent and technique but there seemed to be a barrier that separated them as far as where they would perform. Rock musicians played at rock clubs and blues musicians played at predominately blues clubs. I intended to bring rock musicians and blues musicians together for a night that I named "Rock the Blues" jam. With the help of some really good friends and some soon-to-be friends, the idea was a reality on May 24th, 2008.
I first approached one of the managers at a venue in west Seattle named the Rocksport. I told him that I would like to book an event at their club called "Rock the Blues" jam. He said: " Man, I love the blues, but this is a rock club and I don't think it will work here". I told him that since rock was born from the blues, it was my intention to bring them together for a night of rock and blues music. He said: "I love it! Let's do it".
I was pleasently surprised at the great response I received from musicians of both genres. To make a long story short, it was a great success. The place was a full house and I had many people approach me and say what a great time they had. Some of the musicians told me they hadn't seen some of their musician friends in years even though they both played in the same areas, but different types of clubs due to the music they play.
I've had lots of people ask me when I plan on a 2nd "Rock the Blues" jam. I'm working on that at this time and will be sure to update everyone through the "Rock the Blues" website and MySpace page.
As much as I'd like to take credit for the great success of the 1st "Rock the Blues" jam, I have to say it was the musicians and the people that attended the event that made it happen. For that, I thank each and every one of them.
