| I will be adding gigs to my list on Tuesday & Wednesday nights until further notice & sending my email on Thursday mornings. My new website is up. Check it out www.bluzjunky.com …..you can sort by music genre (Category) and by city (Tags) on website. Maine Musicians and/or Groupies help me help you by using my online form http://bluzjunky.com/submit-venues-events/ and/or emailing me. If you need help just drop me an email. Remember folks I do this for $0 so any help is appreciated. When you click on any of the “event names” below more info will pop up such as attachments, music genre etc. Whatever you do this week travel safely and enjoy the music.
FYI – Always check out Festival/Venue Facebook and Web Pages because they may have National Acts playing that are not supported below or on my website. Read my about page on my website. Spread the word Tell ’em The Bluz Junky sent you. |
| Musicians & Venues please send Gigs by Tuesday for inclusion. |
| FANS GET OUT THERE AND SUPPORT LOCAL MUSICIANS & VENUES!! |
| We all need to really GET OUT THERE and fill those venues. |
| No Fans equals No Live Music, No Jams, NO FUN |
| I do my best but if you leave it all up to me I may miss it. |
| Direct contact via email is best approach. Those who email directly or use my online form will get their gigs on. Those who don’t might get their gigs on. It’s your choice. |
| Double check before heading out as schedules can change. |
| Email Layout : |

| If show is not listed I don’t know about it. Musicians, Venues, Fans please be proactive. Help if you can. Send Gigs by Tuesday for inclusion. |

| PLEASE ENCOURAGE ALL YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY & COMPLETE STRANGERS TO GET OUT THERE AND SUPPORT LOCAL MUSIC AND VENUES. DON’T BE SHY MAKE IT HAPPEN. |
| I support Maine Musicians as I feel quite strongly the Maine scene needs it’s own support. |
| Emails are sent weekly because I think repetition helps get fans going to the shows. |
