The yard.

There are not so many blues-clubs left in the city!
Six clubs have closed since my first visit here in 1997.
It`s the same story.
Their lease is running out and they can`t afford to renew it.
Manhattan is changing fast,becoming a place for the rich and corporate.
Artists are forced to move out.

That`s why they say that the best blues-club in N.Y.C
is in Hoboken New Jersey!
Scotland Yard Bar is the place to go if you want to
listen to the best Blues Bands around.
They have Live music six nights of the week and on Monday nights
the Blues Jam hosted by Big Ed Sullivan ,
has become a must see and hear event where you can meet
the best blues-players from New York, New Jersey and the whole country!

Everybody is friendly and the audience is into the music ,
making every musician feel good and welcome.

I have been there many times myself, either with my band SOUKIS ,
or joining the jam session with different musicians,or as a listener and it always feels great!
But i didn`t know what my bass player and dear friend Margey Peters told me
last night that in January they had their 30 years celebration.

Thirty years of Monday Jam sessions no wonder why the place has become legendary!

Now you yourself can get a taste by clicking on:
Margey Peters and read her well written document of
this trully amazing place.

Enjoy and come visit!
