Liz had it all laid out so well in her e-mail, I am just going to post it as written!

Please mark your calendars…..!!!

MONDAY, OCT. 9TH – The OBS monthly jam starts at 7pm…. our host band is THE EOFF BROTHERS with special guest Earl Cates! Admission is $5, and includes FOOD!

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 18TH -- THE ANNUAL BLUES CHALLENGE at George’s Majestic Lounge starting at 7:30. We have several exciting bands and solo/duo artists lined up to compete. For details go to our website at http://www.ozarkbluessociety.org – the competing bands will be listed and updated as information comes in. Come support your Blues Society’s efforts to take another winning band to Memphis for the International Blues Challenge! Remember that 2 of our previous winners made the Final 10 – an amazing feat considering that over 100 bands compete at this event. WE HAVE GREAT MUSICIANS IN NWA!

ALSO!!! One of our musician members, TONY RIO, is hosting a weekly jam every Thursday at Gators in Rogers (on Walnut). It starts at 8:30…

If you get a chance to take off for the weekend, remember that the Helena blues festival starts this Friday. Although it’s now called the Arkansas Music and Heritage Festival, IT’S STILL THE BISCUIT!!!! I’ll be there, so look me up if you go!
