Please note that this is an archive
page - really more for nostalgia purposes - and has not been updated
since 2009
We always
like to encourage potential participants to listen to the music of
those acts previously selected to get an idea of the music we've picked
in the past. Click <AUDIO>
for the directory of some of the music of past participants (by year)
or see below.
The following
pictures are a montage from some of our past events and are by no
means all of them - more pictures can be seen on the slide shows or
in the past event descriptions opposite but the main point to make
here is that this whole venture is as much about the joy of travel
and meeting wonderful folks as it is about playing great music.
See below for
slide shows and videos from some of our events as well as links
to past events descriptions with photos
and feedback, Blues Bunny reviews and links.
Some
of the artists on this compilation are acts that CMEAS booked
in the UK in addition to the main tour event and some are
acts that sailed through our peer review and wished to be
included on an audio demo given to the UK venues.
Please note that
the acts below (all Chicago) often returned on subsequent
CME (as it was known then) events when we were based in Chicago.
Since Nov. 24th 2004 CMEAS has gone international and is only
booking acts that pass comprehensive peer reviews. Any acts
below may still receive booking assistance from CMEAS but
will not be on any subsequent CMEAS events that have been
opened to competitive online application.
