Lake Worth on Monday, SWFBS Trophy

Subject: Lake Worth on Monday, SWFBS Trophy

Date: February 12th 2022

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

A package came for me today from the South West Florida Blues Society (SWFBS) for winning the South West Florida Blues Challenge last October.
Mel Suran, the SWFBS Membership Chairman told me to expect the package and that it would include a trophy for winning the solo/duo category, a SWFBS tee shirt, and the promised check.
The trophy is a real beauty. So is the tee shirt. I was expecting a check for $150. That’s what I was told. At least that is what I “thought” I was told.
To my surprise, the check was for $750.
I emailed Mel immediately to ask him if there was some mistake. No mistake. The $750 was raised the night of the competition at Cape Cabaret in Cape Coral Florida on the Gulf Coast.
Okay it is official, the SWFBS is a great blues society that really supports the blues community and the musicians. Thank you guys!! See ya in Memphis.

The SWFBS is not the only great blues society around here. We have two of ‘em.
The South Florida Blues Society (SFBS) hired me to perform for the Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise Pre-Launch Party 2 weeks ago at the Hilton Hotel Fort Lauderdale Marina. Mary Council, Mike Ancona, Blues Bobby and the rest of the crew put together a stellar night of blues including Memphis Lightning and King Solomon Hicks. I played for 2 hours by the beautiful pool and then Memphis and I joined King Solomon, Gabe Stillman and others in the jam at the end. It was a terrific night, a real blues blast.

I had a great time playing with Hurricane Hawk & The Invaders at Terra Fermata in Stuart on Thursday. Thomas Aton, Steve Bolanda, Peter George and Hawk make a heckuva fine band that can play real good blues and rock 'n' roll. Ed Berrios from the Treasure Coast Blues Society sat in too. And there was a nice crowd there too with some very familiar faces. Thanks guys.
