 |
| Trish's newest grandchild, Andrew! |
 |
| Thrilled to meet you, Andrew! |
Wednesday Peri’s, TWANGFEST with Treble
Makers Frank, Jeb, Kevin, Schrammie—as well as Tal Morris, Danny Click,
Monroe Grisman, Tommy Odetto, and more fab musicians than I can remember. I love these guys! Love to Ted O, RIP **
Friday back at Peri’s for the always entertaining
and musical magic of The Right Time [& Fenton Coolfoot],
followed by Stymie and the Pimp Jones Luv Orchestra – more phenomenal energy,
funky stage show!
Saturday Fairfax again (!), for dancin’ fun with Korty
& Friends at 19 Broadway, with Jonathan K, Frank Bohan, Dave
Burns, Dan Duffin -- the new and improved 19 Broadway!
♫♪♪
What’s coming?
Friday we
begin our outdoor music series, at Northgate for FOREVERLAND! Way to break in the season!!
After that, possibly head to Hopmonk
for Pop Rocks, or to Seahorse for Doc Kraft …There’s also Stefanie
Keys at Fenix, Chime Travelers at Rickey’s, The 7th
Sons at Elks Club (must RSVP beforehand), and more (I think there
are 20 venues listed for Friday this week!).
Saturday there’s Vinyl at 19 Broadway, James Henry & Hands on Fire at
Fenix, Steve Lucky & The Rhumba Bums at Rancho – but if I can
get up to Twin Oaks, it’s SugarFoot (preceded by Void Where
Prohibited).
Sunday Firewheel
plays at Fenix; Sunday Cookout Music Series at Hopmonk,
and 1st Sunday Reggae in the Session Room; the Corte
Madera Town Center afternoon series begins.
Wednesday there’s the monthly Big Band Swing Dance at Corte Madera
Community Center.
Looking forward next weekend (13th &
14th) to the NOVATO ART WINE & MUSIC Festival, as well as
Fairfax Festival. Quite a fabulous
music lineup at both venues this year!
Though logistically speaking, quite likely I will be in Novato both
days. Where is my magic carpet??
[That
Summer Music Series listing has grown.
I’ll be posting as promised, but when I do it will cover the weekly
Music Fun listing, so you’ll have to keep scrolling back for that.]
