SUZY STUMP: BIG FRICTION JAM REUNION TONIGHT >>>

Jesse-Turcotte-300-9-3 When Jazzbones hosted the Big Friction Jam in 2007, you could find a damp me on the dance floor every Sunday night.

Well, I’m thrilled to report that one of the powers that created the Big Friction Jam, Jesse Turcotte, has organized a BFJ reunion tonight at Doyle’s Public House, which just so happens to be where Turcotte bartends.

The evening will begin with the popular grungy Tacoma hip-hop band The Revengers from 9:30 to 10:30 p.m.

Afterward, the band will join a few teachers from Seattle’s rock school, members of The Higher Vibes (including Turcotte), All Night Yardsale, The Say Hi Band, and assorted musical friends from Tacoma. Expect a funky, bluesy vibe.
