Hiya-
I hope your summer is off to a good start as is mine. The final touches have been put on the “2010 Northern Playcation”. Show schedule- *July 1st-Chicago *2nd-Saugatuck, MI, *3rd and 4th-Muskegon, MI *6th-Grand Haven, MI *9th Ludington, MI *10th Saginaw, MI and *14th- just outside of Grand Rapids in Rockford, MI. The other days will be R & R along the Lake Michigan Shoreline with family and friends.
I’ve got two trips this week that would make nice overnighters – Thursday at the venerable Norb Andy’s Tabarin in Springfield, IL and Sunday at Starview Vineyards in Cobden, IL (near Carbondale)
In each life a little rain must fall- due to the high water in Grafton, I will NOT be at the Loading Dock Saturday afternoon as scheduled. The annual Tow Boat Festival has been canceled. Dry your eyes. There’s enough water up there.
I will, however, be popping in to play a short set at The Shanti Saturday afternoon for the annual breast cancer benefit. It’s run by Ed Belling and his group Pick’n Lick’n. Ed was in the band “Griffin” years ago. I believe he was Paul Light’s replacement. Stop by for music all day for a good cause.
Happy Father’s Day to the dads out there.
This week’s ringtone is the 2nd most requested tune from Golden- dedicated to all those fine folks out there beating their feet on the streets everyday trying to get your bills to you. Mail Man is yours for a pittance – ringtone $2.49/download $0.51
