Blues Calendar: Feb 3 – 9

Blues Calendar - Feb 3This week there is more blues happening at Kona Kai and at House of Blues, which isn’t on the schedule since they don’t offer the drink discount.  There is the weekly BLUSD jam (Blues Lovers United of San Diego – go to www.blusd.org to support our local blues society!) on Wednesday nights from 7-11pm and this week Lafayette and his blues band will also be on the HOB free stage on Friday night starting at 7pm.

Jams are also happening Monday night at the SpeakEasy, Tuesday at Patrick’s and Thursday at Spaguetteria in Little Italy.  And up at Croce’s Park West in Banker’s Hill, Fuzzy Rankins Blues Band will be playing Friday night starting at 8pm.

Blues Calendar: Jan 27 – Feb 2

Blues Calendar - Jan 27It is another lite week for blues around downtown, but there is still blues every night.  There is also the House of Blues jam on Wednesday from 7-11pm, which isn’t on the calendar.

As I mentioned last week, Jimmy Love’s is closed until the spring and will reopen under a new name.  We won’t know until they reopen if blues bands will playing there again or not.

Croce’s moved to Bankers Hill (now Croce’s Park West at 5th and Olive), and this week Fuzzy Rankins’ band will be playing there on Wednesday (7-11) and Lady Dottie & the Diamonds will be there on Friday (8-midnight).  I should be able to get them on the calendar next month, but for right now Croce’s is holding off on the calendar drink discount as they get re-established.

Blues Calendar: Dec 30 – Jan 5

Blues Calendar - Dec 30
It will be a lite week for blues around downtown this week. No blues at Kona Kai, Magnolia or Croce’s.

Croce’s will be moving to Bankers Hill in the next couple of weeks, and they will reopen as Croce’s Park West up on 5th and Nutmeg. From what I hear, they will keep both Fuzzy Rankins and Lady Dottie on their schedule. I will know more about that soon.
