As a supporter of the music scene, I do my best to report what\u2019s good and what\u2019s right about our music community, but I would be remiss if I didn\u2019t give a hearty shout out and thanks to Jerry and Jan McWorter who have brought us amazing Blues shows to Ventura the past ten years. I was hoping they would continue after finding another home base, but after some soul searching they have decided to pull the plug. Meanwhile, the shows will continue for a few more Friday nights with Morry Sochat featuring Mondo Cortez on November 9, Shari Puorto Band on November 16, and a huge blow out farewell show on November 23 with Deke Dickerson &amp; the Eccofonics, Teresa James &amp; the Rhythm Tramps as well as Hot Roux featuring two-time Grammy award winner, Albert Lee.<\/p>\n<p>Ones to Watch Productions have been busy bringing a number of shows to the area, the next one will feature Chris Pierce and The Brambles in an intimate setting at the Ojai Underground on Friday, November 9.<\/p>\n<p>Just a word of warning about December 1 as there are several events planned on the same day. Let\u2019s start with Totally Local VC\u2019s One-Year Thomas Fire Remembrance concert at the Libbey Bowl with Big Bad Voodoo Daddy; then there\u2019s the 4 Kids 2 Kids\u2019 18th annual toy drive and concert at the Ventura Beach Club with Ray Jaurique and the Uptown Brothers; and finally \u201cthe social event of the year\u201d with the holiday street fair and Ventura Winter Wine Walk downtown Ventura. All three events promise to be a good time, so choose wisely!<\/p>\n<p>Quick Notes: Joe Vandenberg, singer\/songwriter, will be at Namba on Friday, November 9; The Ventura Theater has Andy Grammer on Friday, November 9, The Selector on Saturday, November 10 and SuicideGirls on Saturday, November 17; The Freedom Ledges with their unique brand of dirty Blues and Rock &amp; Roll will be at Oak and Main on Saturday, November 10; Noble Grizwald return to Saloon BBQ on Saturday, November 10; Allvaret from Sweden play The Garage on Saturday, November 17; Yachtley Crew cruise into Discovery on Saturday, November 17; and Broadway star, Lesli Margherita, plays the Rubicon Theater for two days in a brand new concert, \u201cThis Broad\u2019s Way\u201d on November 17 and 18th.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, my condolences going out to family, friends and musicians who are grieving the loss of George Hawkins, Jr. who passed away after a lengthy illness on October 26, 2018. He touched many a soul, was a musician\u2019s musician and a good friend to so many.<\/p>\n<p>Do you have any music-related news or upcoming shows you want help publicizing?
