A vow of Happiness … Not always easy, but worth pursuing! ♫♪
My shoutouts
for this past week:
Roseberry Jam at Hopmonk last Thursday—young, enthusiastic, with the talents of
many MSA (Marin School of the Arts) graduates—including Patrick Pollack, who
does a mean Barry White!
Back at Hopmonk
Friday night with a good crowd for Pop Fiction (sorry to have missed Mojo
Rising at Rancho, Doc Kraft at PYC)
Saturday,
19 Broadway with Eric McFadden—awesome, awesome. Blew us away! Began with solo Americana
stuff, added a few musicians for what felt like a hootenanny, then brought it
all with some powerful funky psych-rock, ala Hendrix … (missed Revolver
at Fenix)
Sunday
back in Fairfax for Joey Davis B’Day at Peri’s – fun gathering of
bright spirits!

Coming
up? Top of mind are my two eclectic concerts
with Marin Symphony!! Sunday afternoon
and Tuesday night. I’ve already
purchased discounted tickets (30% off) for quite a few of you – and encouraging
the rest of you as well! This will be a
concert unlike any other, with Strauss’s Don Juan opening the program, then
Sibelius’ Finlandia, with the Youth Orchestra performing alongside their
Symphony counterparts. After intermission is the Poulenc Gloria, in which I
perform with about 90 fellow choristers; and THEN Mason Bates’ Mothership—an exciting
work by this 38-year old who has worked with Michael Tilson Thomas,
incorporating electronics and dynamic guest soloist improvisations, and light
show! My discount code is MSCM—and
use my name at Box Office.
Also on my radar, the film The Wrecking Crew
has been extended once again, until April 15.
I MUST get to this—either Monday the 13th, or closing night.
Tonight (Wed.) I make my way to the Big Band
Dance at Corte Madera Community Center.
Thursday evening there’s a lecture at Corte Madera Library for the current FAMSF costume exhibit, that I
plan to attend with Laura.
Friday most probably headed
for Sambada at Hopmonk; and if I can get out early enough, head
over to the Bandworks/ Sunnbolt Friday Night Jam for a bit to start the
evening. Also recommended: Danny
Click & The Hell Yeahs! at Sleeping Lady (also on Sat. night); Strange
Angels with Randy Rood at Presidio Y.C. (Before the Bang had
to cancel); Jose Neto at 19 Broadway …
Saturday there’s again a
feast from which to choose: DJ
Richard Habib’s Zodiac event at Sausalito Seahorse—always an
incredible treat for the senses: auditory, visual with special Samba dancers
(and perhaps for your taste buds if you dine). We could begin early at Trek Winery with The Chime Travelers. Also with high recommendation: Doc Kraft Dance Band at Twin Oaks;
Danny & the HYs at The Lady; Ridgeway Spacestation at
Hopmonk … and the list goes on.
SUNDAY it’s MARIN
SYMPHONY! And Tuesday next as well!
(with the Wrap Party afterwards)
And then we do it all again ;-)
