#501 :: Another Hour of Darcy Perry's Blues Power

The Blues Room, 2 September 2015
Episode #501

Darcy Perry hosts The Blues Room each first Wednesday of every month. I'm usually in the studio with him. However, on this occasion I had troubles with my vehicle and couldn't make it in on time so Darcy took the reins and carried on by himself. I reckon he did an awesome job! Unfortunately, the phone lines weren't connecting and we missed our opportunity to talk with Lloyd Spiegel. So we apologize to all the listeners waiting for Lloyd to come on air. We will try one last time next week to get Lloyd on air, and then we'll look forward to seeing him in person in Hamilton at the Nivara Lounge on 17th September, 2015. Meanwhile, heres another great playlist from Darcy, that song by Black Stone Cherry was playing on my radio as I drove into the studio in heavy rain! Enjoy.
