Tuesday Rockpile Blues jam returns live, with a catch | TorontoMoon.ca 200804Tu | Shows for Tuesday, August 04, 2021

\ ETOBICOKE \

Live music continues to creep back onto the scene, with Rockpile in Etobicoke going full-force ahead with local jams if not yet with concert shows on its indoor stage.

Tonight the “Tuesday Bluesday” jam with Rocco Novia and his house band, about which our correspondent Mike Beggs told us last Novcmber.

With COVID restrictions in mind the jam now happens on the patio of the club at 5555 Dundas St., W. near Highway 427, but moves inside if it rains, Rocco tells me.

Sign-up starts at 6, with the music kicking off at 7 and the club is instituting a new policy which says jammers need to spend at least $15 inside to help support the bar before they can take part in the jam.
