Blues for Food 2011

February 16, 2011 Lindsay

I would make some joke about this being a great cure for the winter blues – but since it is spring like weater outside – I will spare you the bad jokes and get to the point.

6.5 hours of live blues music and it is all for a good cause.

The Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank knows that 12 months is along time to wait for the next annual blues fest which is held during the summer.  So they bring you a little mid winter break of blues.

$10 gets you in the door – all of the money goes to the food bank and you can spend sunday afternoon listening to Eugene and the Nightcrawlers…
