Spa City Blues Society 2011 Christmas Party – December 3, 2011

Mark your calendar for December 3, 2011, for the Spa City Blues Society 2011 Christmas Party.  The festivities will be held at the Arlington Hotel in Hot Springs, Arkansas.  The party will feature performances by the SCBS’s representatives to the 2012 International Blues Challenge – which, in case you’ve been sleeping under a rock – are this very Donkey and the band Clover Blue. 

The party serves a number of purposes.  It will be a fundraiser for the IBC sponsorships.  The SCBS will also be collecting toys for Toys for Tots, so be sure to bring an unwrapped toy to donate.  But most important, the party is an opportunity to support the SCBS, which is vital the Central Arkansas blues scene.  Not only does the SCBS annually sponsor two entrants to the IBC, it organizes the Hot Springs Blues Festival, puts on weekly jams in Hot Springs, and works diligently to keep serious blues played and heard in Hot Springs. 

And lets not forget that you’ll get a chance to hear some music that comes straight from the Low Side of the Road.  I’ll let you make up your own mind about the Donkey, but I can guarantee that Clover Blue is worth the price of admission alone. Red dress, bare back, dancing shoes, shake it!

Doors open at 7:00 p.m., and the music starts at 8:00 p.m.  Tickets are $5.00 for SCBS members and $10.00 for non-members (remember, this is a fundraiser), and you can purchase them in advance at the SCBS website (see the link to the left).  And don’t forget a toy!  (I’ll take a telecaster, please.)
