   About The Joey Odum Blues Project
Born with Cerebral Palsy and confined to a wheelchair, Joey began playing guitar and writing songs at age three. His first stage appearance was with 70's rock legend Edgar Winter at six, and after that he knew that music was what he wanted to do. The Joey Odum Blues Project is a power trio that combines driving grooves with mostly crisp and clean, but strong guitar work. Come see for yourself what it is like to be part of the Joey Odum Experience! "Work Hard To Play The Blues" is the debut release from The Joey Odum Blues Project featuring Joey Odum with two of Southern Illinois' finest musicians. Mick "The Stick" on drums and background vocals, and Mark Moreno on bass, and background vocals, with specal guest Shadi Frick on Hammond B3 Organ, and piano. This disc contains 10 original blues tracks that are straight from the heart. Enjoy!

Does your band need a place to play, but are sick of the jerks serving as "Venue Nazis," hosting only specific Cliques of bands?
...us too!
Screw that. Who needs it?
Guess what? Your wait is over! We are Virtual World Promotions. Our goal is to give EVERY rock band a stage, not just girl-pants wearing whiners, but METAL heads, acoustic rockers, experimentalists, whatever, a place to play and the means to accomplish their goals. We're here to swim upstream with ya! The cool thing is that we book at a venue in Carbondale called the Crown Jewel Lounge. We're taking a grassroots approach to re-building the Southern Illinois rock music scene one step at a time. Its really a group effort. We're ALL in this together. As a band, you can either be part of the PROBLEM or part of the Solution! Let's build a sense of community and brotherhood for EVERYONE in our area who love to rock out. There's plenty of space for bands and music fans to mix and mingle, and on Saturday nights, get pretty dang toasty on the booze (If that's your thing). Saturdays are our full on drunken rock fests!
The Crown Jewel is a bar, but we host All-Ages Rock shows on many Fridays before the bar ever opens. These events are targeted at the younger crowds who can't attend the bar concerts. We think this will help to keep kids off of the streets, smoking crack and shoplifting, ha! Shows never cost more than $5 on either night.
We have a full on sound system and publish the weekly rock shows in colored ads with Carbondale's NIGHTLIFE Entertainment Newsweekly as well as the local events calendar.
*
So enough about the Crown Jewel already, I'm sure we'll see you out there soon, but, its not the only place bands are rocking out. If you're in a band, and have shows coming up, let us know in a myspace message. Yes we have a Myspace, and it is VERY active. But only as active as the bands who contribute to it directly! No we don't have time to scour the internet and hunt down what

Dragons were slayed, and the Gods of Rock smiled upon us.
Your enthusiasm is infectious. From the immortal words of Bob Dylan...."may you stay forever young".
