Bluejeans' Place is a new media, Internet-based, non-profit, educational kid-safe web site dedicated to "Teaching Tolerance, Enriching Minds" with many pages dedicated to blues music, project management, trains, civil rights historical sites and various road trip locations around America. 

In an effort to help preserve blues history, we also conduct The Blues Music Documentary Historical Project where we photograph and document various blues music scenes including festivals as well as past and past blues historical locations.  In the past, we covered concerts by Johnny Winter, KoKo Taylor, Lil’ Howlin’ Wolf and Bo Diddley as well as the Dayton and Delta Blues Festivals.   Periodically, we may publish current events stories of interest to the general public.

Our 100+ page web site serves 14,000 to 19,000 page views a month to users from around the world.  Several of our photos, including one of the famous “Crossroads” of blues music fame will appear later this year in Chris Epting’s book titled “James Dean Died Here…The Locations of America’s Pop Culture Landmarks.” 

In keeping with normal press industry practices, Bluejeans' Place designs and issues its own staff press credentials as an independent documentary organization publishing news to the Internet.  Additionally, each staff member carries a press pass issued by The Independent Media Convergence Project VT.
