Well, in early February, Rick and The Mike Crandall Band of CT, had an exciting time at the 2008 International Blues Challenge. Representing the Connecticut Blues Society, they played their way through the 100 band preliminary round to then participate in the 10 band finale. Some on stage misfortune hindered their cause that night, but the guys all had a great time playing their music and enjoying Memphis.
In addition to playing in finals in The Orpheum Theater, the band enjoyed very much playing at The Rum Boogie 182 Beale Street in Memphis. The club had a great vibe and the word was out as people packed themselves in to see the show from New England.
So hat's off to the Mike Crandall Band for being 2008 IBC Finalists!
