From Ron Unlike bears, the Blues does not go into hibernation during the winter. There's still plenty of shows during the week. The Logan Inn, McStew's and Joseph's still offer the Blues every week. I am happy to announce that on Saturday nights from 6-7PM, I will be hosting a blues show broadcast from WWFM at Mercer County Community College. You can hear it at 89.1(HD only),on the Internet(click HERE) or possibly on your cable system if they offer a MCCC channel. I'm looking for a name for the show. If you think of a name, let me know by email and if I pick it, I'll send you a copy of the TrentonBlues CD. On 12/23, the Patriot's Theater will host the 10th Annual Ernie White Christmas Benefit show.Many local performers get together to perform blues, rock, etc versions of Christmas songs. It's a great show for an important cause. Click HERE for more information. Joseph's in Langhorne is offering a great New Year's Eve package. Scoville Blues will help ring in the New Year. Click HERE for more information. If you plan on going, feel free to let me know as I plan to reserve a table and would be happy to share it with you. As always, if you have any suggestions or comments or if you know of any blues activities, please let me know. Please continue to support the local musicians. Remember, no fans- no venues; no venues-no performers. The TrentonBlues CD update:It's not too late to order a CD for Christmas. Click HERE to see a list of songs and performers. Click on the song title to hear a sample. Click HERE to order it. For every CD ordered before the end of the year, I'll donate $10 to the Ernie White Christmas Benefit. What’s Going
