Bidgee Blues Club

HISTORY and AIMS:A group of music enthusiasts with a like-minded aim of enjoying a more relaxed and mature take on live ..blues' music, got together and formed the Bidgee Blues Club Inc in May 2006.The direction of the committee of the club is to enhance the community's access to, and enjoyment of Blues and Roots music, which has a very broad genre.We are doing this in the following ways: • Events are promoted regularly where local and national Blues performers come to Wagga and show their stuff. • Open Mic%lam Nights are held on the first Thursday night of every month where anyone can come along and perform. • Music workshops are provided for local people where professional tutors pass on their knowledge and skills. • Establish a data base of members so we can communicate the club's activities ... ie: Gigs, Newsletters, upcoming National Blues Festivals, Fundraisers, Members Nights, etc. • And maybe one day of holding a Blues Festival in Wagga Our club slogan is: "WHERE THE MURRUMBIDGEE MEETS THE MISSISSIPPI".I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
