BKK Blues Festival

Taken from an email I recieved-

Reminder: The third installment of the annual Bangkok Blues Festival returns to Tokyo Joe’s Bar & Restaurant over the weekend of March 13 -15, 2008, and is once again generously sponsored by Corona. Kansas City Bluesman Glenn Patrik returns as headliner and will be joining forces with some of the best blues and blues rock bands in the region. The festival kicks off at 8.00pm on Thursday March 13 with the homegrown Hoochie Coochie who will be followed by the Ad Here Blues Band featuring one of the best slide guitar players in town. Blue on Blue will add some southern rock grooves to the opening night and will be followed by the dynamic Blues Machine featuring multiple award winning guitarist Snowman and the ever effervescent Mary on vocals. Friday March 14 begins with the classic rock and bluesy sounds of The Fugitives, to be followed by new comers Inside/Out who have recently added Boy from the now defunct Bangkok Blues Band as frontman. Up next is the Boy Blues Band from Chiang Mai, a power trio well worth going out of your way for. Glenn Patrik, who has been headlining the festival since its inception, will be closing the show with a set that is sure to have the crowd yelling for more. Joining the impressive line – up is Malaysia’s Serious Trouble who will be hitting the stage on Saturday night, following the erstwhile Doctor Blues and TJ’s own Full House while Bangkok blues stalwarts Soi Dog will be bringing the night, and the festival, to a close with an extended set of the rockin’ blues groove they have become known for. Entry will be 300 Baht (including 1 Corona) during the three nights of the festival with collectable T-Shirts on sale. Live music will begin nightly at 8.00pm Look forward to seeing you there, Jeff T www.tokyojoesbkk.com
