A Simpler Time
Was I dreaming? Hard to believe I heard this much live music in the past 7 days,
but here are my THANKS!
Last Wednesday the Fenix
Blues Jam, with Special Guest Rudi Colombini. Woo hoo to Roscoe, Michael W, Larry V, Rich
Armstrong, Marlon Green, Scott Sherman, Martin Scott—among others!
From there to Peri’s TwangFest with
The Treble Makers: Frank, Jeb, Kevin, Erik, along with Lloyd, Scott O,
Michael, Danny Uzi and more. Fantastic
twang, funky rockin’ blues and soul.
Thursday Rudy and the Unauthorized Rolling Stones at
Sweetwater.— played to a packed and enthusiastic house.
Friday the R&B All Stars with Elena Keating at
Pacheco, followed by the JAMES MOSELEY Dance Band at Fenix!
LOVE me that R&B music.
Saturday Tribe of the Red Horse at Hopmonk –
first Neil Young & Crazy Horse tribute I’ve heard.
Sunday another outdoor afternoon concert at Magnolia
Terrace at the Elks, with Key Lime Pie. And following that MOJO RISING at Piccolo
Pavilion in Corte Madera. YES I feel
it!
Tuesday to Sweetwater for Stymie & The Pimp Jones
Luv Orchestra also with Fenton Coolfoot & The Right Time!
That just might hold me for a few days …
Very sorry to have missed another Fenix Blues Jam—this one
celebrating Buddy Guy (whose birthday is July 30—along with quite a few
others!!
Thursday this week some specials: Schrammtastics
at the Marin Art & Garden Center. Then those guys will pack up and head to Zodiac’s
to play with Bonnie Hayes & Tim Eschliman with Mystery Dance –
and Bonnie’s only performance that I’ve heard about while she’s back here from
Boston.
Friday
has Firewheel at Seahorse, The Van Animals at Tam Valley,
Linda Imperial at the Cruising Club …
Saturday there’s Freddy Clarke at Seahorse, Points North at
Hopmonk, Kevin Brannan at Cruising Club.
Sunday
there’s free music outdoors at Corte Madera, San Anselmo, Mill Valley
– and the Hopmonk Beer Garden. In
the evening I’d love to catch Whiskey Pills Fiasco at Peri’s –
heard him play with Jinx Jones at Sweetwater a couple of weeks ago – boy can he slap that
bass! Also another free show at Sweetwater: Miles Schon (followed by The Highway
Poets—interesting lineup). Hopmonk
has their Reggae Sunday show.
Go ahead and check out this week’s dance opportunities! ♫♫♪
