FROG-SONG
Attended a meditation Tuesday evening, in our
community clubhouse, with the surround-sound of hundreds--perhaps thousands of
frogs. The meadow below is a seasonal wetlands, and at this time is
well-ponded. The frogs produce a
cacophony of sound! Lovely!
They, at least, are looking forward to the incoming storm. Not so for me.
Hope you are all safe, and that the dire predictions for this super
storm are overblown!
Absolutely wonderful—and yes, soul-satisfying--to sing with the Marin Symphony Chamber Chorus at our
annual Holiday Candlelight Concerts
at St. Raphael’s on Saturday and Sunday! I saw some of you there – thanks so very much
for sharing the experience!
Oh, and I’ll be singing again, with the full chorus and Marin Symphony, on Dec. 16 at Veterans Auditorium in another completely different
Holiday program. Call 415-473-6800 for
tickets (Marin Center Box Office).
On Friday night, after my rehearsal, stopped at Fenix for Bohemian Highway, new to me--and pleasantly surprised to see the
joint was packed, dancefloor in motion, and much fun pop r&b funky music
grooving on into the wee hours!
On Saturday evening after my concert, stopped by San Rafael Joe’s to catch the last bit
of the always-entertaining Phillip Percy
Williams. He’s there every Saturday
evening.
Sunday, as predicted, partied with the other choristers at the
beautiful home of one of our own in Strawberry.
Sorry to have missed Key Lime Pie
& Firewheel at Rancho – hope to see them next time!
This week coming: looks
like I’ve missed the Ray Simpson Big
Band Dance in Corte Madera tonight (Wednesday) L
Thursday there’s the College of Marin Jazz Swing Dance at Seahorse, with a lesson beforehand from Al & Mary. Hopefully the weather will not be as dire as
predicted!
Friday highlights: there’s Beso
Negro at Hopmonk, and Tie Dye Blues Band at Presidio Y.C. Also The
Mighty Groove Holiday Party at Aqus,
and Olive & The Dirty Martinis
at 19 Broadway.
Saturday Carlos & I have a community dinner,
and then on to a party – so pretty sure we won’t get out on the dance floor. There is a daytime “Let It Snow” Festival in downtown Novato …
Sunday no definite plans, but I see Lonestar Retrobates is at
Presidio Y.C. for their monthly afternoon dance party.
Stay Safe, and in this season of merrymaking, please don’t get
stoo-pid—don’t drink & drive. ♫♪♪
