Music/Fun Week of March 20


UPDATES in RED
Uh, "ain't too proud to beg" ♫♪ . . . I send my blast to 500, yet fewer than 30 have voted for Laura's wool peplum skirt. Ouch. The contest ends Monday at 9pm.  Pretty please? This is a one-time offer, no login required, just click on the 5th star and you've voted!  One vote per computer. My last plea. Thanks from Mom.  http://evadress.wordpress.com/2012/03/13/catagory-4-entry-by-laura-pattern-e40-6111/

Hello Gals & Guys,
HAPPY FIRST FULL DAY OF SPRING!!
 Appreciation for another past wonderful week of Music and Dance!  Monthly Big Band Swing Dance in Corte Madera, Unauthorized Rolling Stones at the Mystic!,The TICKETS Band at Seahorse, and the Ladies (Lynn Asher, Tracy Blackman, Susan Z and Liz Pisco) Singin' & Rockin' & Dreamin' not Sleeping at the Sleeping Lady! Absolutely remarkable how much talent is in our midst. 
Coming up for me this weekend, my brain is doing somersaults: an abundance of riches!!  Quite a plateful on Thursday; for Fri. hope to be on board withFOREVERLAND at George's, but Doc Kraft is also happening; Sat. there's Cheap Therapy with Dan Brown at PYC, or maybe Freddy Clarke at Seahorse, or Revolver or Wild Child or stop by for some Jamie Clark ... Good Grief! how can I take it all in?  Will see how this one unfolds ...

For Laura (my talented sewist daughter) fans: She's asking again for an easy vote from you-- just one vote, and no login required--for her wool peplum skirt. Just click on the link, find the stars and click the 5th star for "Excellent", and you've voted -- no need for repeat votes.  The winner of the contest receives a gift certificate to a vintage reproduction pattern company--just what she needs to keep her fabulous new Bernini (that many of you helped her win!) busy!  Laura thanks you in advance for your support!   http://evadress.wordpress.​​com/2012/03/13/catagory-4-​​entry-by-laura-pattern-e40-​​6111/
 Please remember to TIP the MUSICIANS--where in the world would we be without them??
