b.. Wednesday 31 Mar
- Viree Blues Boreale presents David Gogo to celebrate the 6th anniversary of
Le Petit Chicago at this 11th edition of Virée Blues Boreale 8 pm to 11;55 pm
We had often been asked by many Virée Blues Boreale's fans for some years
to invite our next guest. But, the distance from the Vancouver region where he lives,
to here warranted carefully considering THE Opportunity to invite this great Canadian
Bluesman to Virée Blues Boreale.
The Vancouver Olympic Games brought back the thought and an idea for the celebration
of Le Petit Chicago's 6th anniversary provided the jumpstart to bring this very lively
guitarist with a captivating voice, David Gogo, who is traveling from the other end of
the country especially for you who will come to meet him at his show at Viree Blues
Boreale! ... Alexandre Petit
For more info, check the Ottawa Blues, Jazz & Swing Guide calendar.
I only highlight a small number of events that are posted to the calendar.
Nowhere near everything is posted on the calendar as it's musician/venue
optional to post, and amend the listings as needed. However more info can be found
on the calendar including links to such venue web sites as Rainbow Bistro, Tucson's,
The Elmdale and Bass Line Station that usually have more detailed schedules.
It's also a good idea to call a venue to confirm that regular listings still apply
as they sometimes just quietly go away or may be cancelled due to weather disruptions.
