IBB Back at BuilConn 2006!
The IBB seems to have taken on a life of its own with people interested in joining us on stage.

Sinclair: What can you tell us about the Interoperable Blues Band at BuilConn 2006?
Wolffe: This year should be better than ever. We have a number of new players and are already learning new material to support some surprise guests. The IBB seems to have taken on a life of its own with people interested in joining us on stage. It’s easy! Give me a call or email and we can chat about the current set lists and the tunes you’d like to do.
Typically we’ll send out a master CD to all participants so we can learn tunes and our parts on our own. Then, without the benefit of any rehearsal and true to the interoperable spirit, live and in front of our friends and colleagues, we’ll try to make it sound great. Just like last year.
Sinclair: You guys had some great moments last year! It looked like everyone had fun and the audience was into it. Will Graham be back?
Wolffe: Yes. He’s just wrapping up an around the world tour and vacation and is booked to be back in New England for a seven date tour just after BuilConn. So, we’ll bring him along. You can check it out at: http://bandofwolves.com/pages/1/index.htm. We’ll also see new faces in the form of our industry colleagues who saw the fun last year and asked, “How can I join in? This looks like a blast!” One call is all it takes.
Sinclair: Sounds like great fun and we’re all looking forward to it!
Wolffe: We are too. We’re also looking forward to getting you up for a killer rendition of that RAP tune you’ve been telling us about!
