Keeping My
Cool, the Week in Review …
A
phenomenal turnout for the S.F. Presidio Officers’ Club Dance on Saturday
night, with the Royal Society Jazz
Orchestra, and hosted by Cynthia
Glinka (“If you can walk you can dance”)!
This re-opening of renovated Moraga Hall, with its ballroom, museum,
bar, and many corridors/galleries was attended by probably about 500 eager
visitors, enjoying the 30’s style music!
If you’d
like to see another such dance, please let them know: email Mira Bieler, Program Director, at mbieler@presidiotrust.gov. I for one would like to return.
Here are a
few videos from the evening:
So Long But Not Goodbye
Carlos
& I also enjoyed dancing to LOVEFOOL
at Hopmonk on Friday night; and on
Sunday drove out to Rancho to
finally hear San Geronimo – another great
conglomeration of musical talent (Jeremy D’Antonio, Darren Nelson & Friends). Highly recommended!
Big highlight for this week will be the major
PARTY on Friday night at Presidio Yacht Club for the debut of the
James Moseley Dance Band! ♫♪
And
I want to give a special shout-out to Erma Murphy and Daniel Patrick of
Murphy Productions, who will be honored on Sunday evening at the 20th
Annual Milley Awards, for their contributions to the Marin art and music
scene.
A little brain-dead at this time after many phone
calls and emails back East on behalf of Jay, so don’t really know what else I
have planned this week for my Music Therapy! ;-) But
trusting that it will revive my Spirits ♫♪
Wednesday, Oct. 15 – Happy Birthday,
Jennifer T!
