It’s the Jewel City Jamboree<\/a> once again up there in Huntington, West Virginia. Right on the side of the Ohio River at the famous David Harris Riverfront Park<\/a> this is an all volunteer run BYOB event. The website does not say whether this will be a camping event, but it DOES say you can bring a tent. You CAN come and go with your wristband so AS ALWAYS I’ll post some area hotels HERE<\/a> are sixteen reasonable choices.<\/p>\n

I know I have been to the V Club with Ol’ W.B.Walker and I know we weren’t far from this at all so I have been in this area and I understand this venue and festival are LOTS of fun. This festival is VERY family orientated and kid friendly so bring the family for the music. This lineup is ONE HELL of a fine lineup and some of these bands are beyond my good friends. PLEASE folks I absolutely IMPLORE you to support YOUR community ran events like this, your WALLET speaks as loud as your HEART with an event like this. Your money isn’t going to corporate arena conglomerates from buying anything here and I’m pretty sure there are no nine dollar hot dogs. You can buy tickets HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You might remember Mr. Travis Egnor from the Horse Traders (who are on this bill) helped me launch my rapidly popular Steel Guitarists Along The Road<\/a> and I have been having lots of fun chasing down different steel pickers for this project. Another one on this bill is Mr. Rob McNurlin whom has also been a great friend to me and my website, he recorded a gospel album with an original  Johnny Cash Martin guitar and you can read about that HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

JCJAM3<\/a> is a multi-genre music festival held at David Harris Riverfront Park along the beautiful Ohio River. Music, food, friendship and a celebration of our local heritage will take place May 26th & May 27th of 2017. From Bluegrass<\/a> and Old Time to Americana<\/a>, the Blues<\/a>, Rock<\/a> and Western<\/a> Cowboy<\/a> Swing<\/a> with a little of all in between, makes this one of the most unique festivals<\/a> of the season. JCJAM3<\/a> is a 100% not for profit show staffed entirely by volunteers. Besides the great venue, food and music, the show supports local charities for Veterans<\/a> and 1st <\/a>Respondents with its net profit. So support local and live music and take this opportunity to show our Vets and 1st Respondents we care for.
