Re: “The endless drama of the Kansas City Blues Society”
This has been going on for way too long. I'm not on either side of this debate. I'm personal friends with Mike Elrod, Samantha Fish, Shinetop, gharett and Greg shawberg. This is only because of the blues society we once had. I was even reunited with an old school friend named Danielle schnebelen! I had not seen her for over 13 years till I met her at a KCBS event at BB's one night. In my late teens, early 20's I would volunteer every chance I could. From the blues and jazz fest, the kck street festival, the Mardi Gras pub crawl, and many events hosted by KCBS at BB's. I really miss those days. I have tried several times to contact someone to.volunteer over the past several years and have had no response. I feel very saddened by the downsizing of the society over the past several years. The society is supposed to be about community, friends, bands, and having fun. Also it was about educating blues in the schools, promoting the bands, and blues clubs. This was to keep the music alive. I do not hear much of this anymore. 😢 It should not be about politics, finger blaming, or even a downsized elite social club. It should be about the people supported by the society. I saw this go down hill when our last great KCBS president died. I wish it could be back to those days. And not worrying about funds or who pays them, or even how much is being made. Its not about that. Its about community and being one big happy family.
