Jus' Blues Music Awards 2008

In Memphis in early August, the 9th annual Jus' Blues Music Awards show was held at the history Daisy Theater on Beale Street, the birthplace of rock & roll and the home of the blues. Sponsored by the Jus' Blues Music Foundation, the awards show was just part of a week of events that saw lots of live music and more than a little great food. R&B great Joe Simon was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award, and blues artists like Bobby Rush, Kenny Neal, and Eddie Cotton were among the award winners.
