The 2017 International Blues Blowoff (aka the SPAH Blowoff) is once again bringing a stellar lineup, including a BIG welcome to some worthy folks making their first appearance. This year's rhythm section features a former bass player for Taj Mahal and a past drummer with Eric Clapton... killer players!
Tickets are on sale now at www.harmonicaplanet.com/ibb-tickets The limited number of VIP seats are expected to sell out well before the day of, buy soon as possible if you want them. Advance purchase gains early entry (best choice of seats) for either section. Tickets will also be available at the door, but doubtful any VIP seats will remain available the day of.
SPAH convention attendees will once again receive a generous $10 discount! (proof required)
There will be a nice variety of wraps/sandwiches/fruit/soup/salad/snacks and beverages, as well as a bar serving beer, wine and cocktails. Come hungry and get something directly in the showroom, in order to help cover the food sales minimums imposed by the catering service.

For first timers... The IBB is a separately produced sister event to SPAH, admission is not included with SPAH registration. The IBB is a highly recommended "Bucket List" event for any blues fan, many come to SPAH a day or two earlier then they would otherwise in order to hang with other attendees, see the host city, and to catch this show before the main action at the convention heats up on Wednesday.
