I thought a blue moon was just that...literally a
blue moon! A friend sent me this link:
CNN| Blue Moon. Turns out a blue moon is a 2nd full moon appearing in the same calendar month!
Enjoy moon-watching!

Something rare, an occasion that is very seldom but does happen. Interesting!
Does it say how it got termed 'blue' moon as opposed to something that would reflect 2 cycles.. ?

According to the article, particles in the sky, such as volcanic dust, can cause the moon to appear blue.

Moons? Is there more than one? ;D The next lunar eclipse is Sept. 28, 2015! I wonder if the moon will appear red.

Greetings,
I heard about this news on the radio tonight. It happened that I was playing a concert with a small jazz band this evening, so we felt obliged to play the jazz standard 'Blue Moon' in honour of this rare occurrence.
Peace

Jazz band? Should have seen the connection between the name and avatar... duh!
What type of band? Quartet? Is the avatar a pic of your guitar ?
