Road Contruction Awareness week.

I am very aware of road construction. I notice that the main highway that I take to get to Guitar Center is under construction. I will have to take back roads to get to the BOTB (FKA KOT
competition. I will have to plan an additional 30 minutes or so of road time...
Do this for fun first.

It is official, the Guitar Center, 2010 King of the Blues has been announced. Burlap and Blues is honored that the winner, Randy Scott is a member of our forum.
I encourage you all to watch the video
A stellar performance with great licks and interpretation. Excellent playing.
I look forward to posting the remainder of the videos of the competition.
The end of my KOTB 2010 blog entries.

It was a great ride. As of last night, it is all over for me. I did not get to move on in the competition. I was fortunate enough to be in the top 5 in Rockford, but the judges have made their decisions.
Last night 1200 or so guitarists competed and 214 will move on. Quite an elite group. Many of which probably do not belong to advance either because they did not know the rules or intentionally falsified to move on to the next round. Either way it is Guitar Center's contest, it belongs to them and they get to do it how they want. I am just thankful that I got to move on. I got some good tips from the judges. Some I agree with, some I do not.
Now back to things that are different.
GC KOTB store preliminaries are over, now on to the store finals

This year has had a wider variety of interest than most years. Usually the blues players are lined up to jam away at KOTB, but this year, at least at Rockford, there has been a wider variety of players than I have ever seen. The competition is getting better, but there are some definite differences.

Well, after tomorrow night, there will be no more chances to throw your hat in the ring. You have some time to get signed up, if there are spots available. I know that there are spots available at some Guitar Center's, so go for it.
Members at Burlap and Blues have had a very strong showing this year. Congrats to those who have already made it to the store finals, and good showing for those who did not.
