Aloha. Aloha, aloha. I don’t know why you say aloha, I say aloha. Good times were had by most this week. Thanks to all of the folks who showed up at Norb Andy’s, Schnucks, Aeries and Candicci’s. It’s great to see people out having fun and it makes it even more enjoyable for me.

Upcoming dates include August 12th -The Shanti,14th -Blue Sky Vineyards, 20th- Seven, 21st -Greenville Campground (Private Party) AND Maggie O’Briens, 22nd -Starview Vineyards, 26th -Music Under The Stars, 27th -Candicci’s, 28th -Aeries, September 5th -The Loading Dock, 9th- The Shanti, 24th -The Wine Rack, 25th -Cajun’s Wharf. I try my best to keep the schedule at budsummers.com up to date in case you want to plan ahead. Keep those suitcases handy.

By the bye here’s a review of one of my tunes-

By Beeb Ashcroft
Bud Summers brings us ’50s-flavored guitar licks on his feel-good folk/rock cut, “One More”. Beautifully simple, Summers gets back to basics by focusing on what really matters – good songwriting and solid playing. This cut has a warm feel, with catchy riffs and a thoroughly fun approach that is sure to get your feet tapping – after you hear it, you’ll surely want to give it “One More” listen.

This week:

Have a great week and maybe I’ll see you again soon. Real soon.
Bud

I can’t stop the way I feel, things you do don’t seem real
Tell you what I’ve got in mind cause we’re runnin’ out of time
Won’t you ever set me free, this waitin’ rounds killin’ me
She drives…………

If by chance you feel an overwhelming desire to have your name removed from the recipient list of these missives- quash it.

In like a Lion?

March 2010- in like a lion and out like a lamb? Or vice versa?

3rd in Soulard, 6th CD Release at Mac’s, 8th Houlihan’s Fairview Hts

It appears as though March has crept stealthily upon us. I am absolutely not ready for the CD release but let the games begin.

Looking ahead, I’ve added another date in Chicago and will be playing both Sunday the 28th and Monday the 29th in the Windy City.

If you’re looking for a fun road trip this would be a good one. I recommend the Clubhouse Inn and Suites in Westmont.

There are still tickets available for the release party Saturday evening- but hurry!!!

Today I received solemn promises that there will be CDs (free with your ticket) and T Shirts if you’d like to purchase one (The “Can’t Stop The BS” 2009 Tour Shirt is still available and the new shirt is a commemorative one for the CD release)

Wednesday March 3rd

Saturday March 6th

I’m pretty much back at it. Played a private party, then Houlihan’s in Fairview Heights, IL tonight I’m in Soulard at the Shanti in St. Louis, MO and another private party tomorrow night

Gotta slow down a little!

Monday, May 11th, 2009

I am worn out.  Had a pretty big week with The Shanti in Soulard, St Louis, MO followed by afternoon gigs two days in a row in Grafton, IL followed by Houlihan’s in Fairview Heights, IL. I hate to turn down opportunities but I may have to be more careful with my schedule until summer gets here and I don’t have to be at work during the day.
