Sportsmens Tavern did an excellent job of hosting, and WNY Public Broadcasting got to meet some of the multitude of Blues fans. Gretchen Schulz & Doug Morgano, backed by The Willie Schoellkopf Band are among Buffalo's best musicians. Jim and Anita on stage were frosting on a very tasty cake. Thank you, WNYPB.Brian J.

As one of the honored attendees, I must say that it was INDEED an enjoyable evening !<br />Hopefully the very high turn out for this lively event will show everyone the level of support and appreciation that this community has for WBFO and it's Blues programming !<br />While many of the attendees know one another from various on-line communities, most notably the Anita West Bobblehead Buddies ( BTW, WHERE is the Jim Santella counterpart? )many were also the average listeners and this beautifully organized evening helped to not only cement existing friendships and relationships but, also to build new ones !<br />That is not only the spirit of the Blues at large, but, also THE VERY SPIRIT of Public Broadcasting AS IT SHOULD BE !<br />If Public Broadcasting is to be truly successful , the community must be not only informed,and entertained , but, it's various communities brought closer together .<br />THAT, my friend, is what Public Broadcasting should do !<br />Many kind Thanks to all from WBFO who helped meet those lofty goals by supporting and planning this great event !<br />Jay-Mojaymentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220859400895755605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-582327136917572056.post-37186226302727302372012-05-09T15:51:17.226-07:002012-05-09T15:51:17.226-07:00Peachess WNY Said:

I truly enjoyed every bit of the night and although it was called The Listener Appreciation Party...I think it was much more of a Mutual Appreciation...on both sides! As Listener's, we have loved & appreciated all that Yourself & Anita do for all of us...with every show, every single weekend. We LOVE the Blues...and without a doubt We also Love it's Buffalo home at WBFO!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
