Why not organise one then? It is a serious answer.

Going back a good few years the George Hotel ( don't know what it is now) on Blackburn Road , used to tag on to the end of the burnley Colne Blues Fest:

Maybe the Stanley St Club could do something.... they sometimes have live acts on:

This the gig page on 'The Stanley's website
What's On- looks like it hasn't been updated lately
http://www.thestanley.co.uk/html/functions.html
As well as paid artists, that club/pub hosts a jamming session for local artists every Monday night
