Must be a tough time of the year to try and book blues acts.

Subject: [Harp-L] Correction to SPAH Publicity materials regarding PJ Norris
SPAH Publicity Director Warren Bee recently sent out the entertainment
lineup for SPAH 2009 in Sacramento.
Thanks to me, it contains a really stupid error.
One of the artists featured in the Thursday night blues show is PJ Norris.
I mis-stated his name in the publicity lineup as "PJ Perry," a name that
belongs to a sax player who lives in Vancouver, where I grew up.
I've been knowing PJ Norris for years, but under his former nickname/stage
name of Big Bones (PJ Norris is his real name). When it came time to relate
his name for SPAH publicity purposes, I somehow unwittingly substituted a
name buried in my long distant past.
I apologize to PJ Norris for the error and to SPAH for any incovenience, and
to any innocent bystanders for the confusion.
By the way, PJ Norris is an original artist with a whole different, modern
take on the blues. I thnk he will provide a fascinating contrubtion to the
blues night at SPAH. Meanswhile, I recommend that you check him out on the
web:
