What You Can Do With Local Blues

Many people disregard the local blues band, but the reality is that the locals can be just as good as the national acts. I found that out in KC when on Saturdays Blues reigned supreme from about noon to 3am. There were jams running all day into the early evening, when the national acts took the stage around ten. Then after 3am the part moved over to Graces Barbecue where her famous all night blues jam continued in probably the worst neighborhood in KCK. It was a jam that you had to know someone to get on stage. No newbies allowed:-) Sundays continued with two to three jam sessions going to midnight or later.

Here is a article about how some local blues bands in Niagara Falls are kicking up some heat.
