BOBBLE TIKI: SUPPORT BLUES IN LAKEWOOD >>>

God bless the blues. And god knows there’s nowhere quite as fit for the blues as Lakewood. If that’s not a blues breeding town, Bobble Tiki doesn’t know what is. So, when Bobble Tiki got a call from Neil Fallen the other day telling him that the Monday night blues jam at Maggie O’Toole’s featuring Borrowed Time (a band consisting of Fallen, Doug Skoog, Curtis Smith, Paul Buck and Billy Barner) was in danger of ceasing to be, Bobble Tiki decided to take action. What you are reading is that action. If you at all care about the blues in Lakewood, get off your duff tonight and check out Borrowed Time doing its thing on the bluesiest day of the week. According to Fallen, if the jam doesn’t pack ’em in over the next two Mondays Maggie’s will move in another direction.

[Maggie O’Toole’s, 8:30 p.m., no cover, 6006 100th St. S.W., Tacoma, 253.584.3278]
