Janiva Magness will be at Jazz Alley on the 25th and 26th, and KNKX has a ticket giveaway for the first night. Contest entry is free. Just fill in the contact information so they can reach you to say “you’re the lucky winner!” In any case, don’t miss her. She brings fire to the stage.
[UPDATE]
Wow, there’s another ticket giveaway, this one from the Washington Blues Society. Just follow the Facebook link, click “Going,” and double your luck. Note that this doesn’t commit you to anything. It just enters you in the contest.
