Coming up this week…

On Tuesday, the CMC Jam at Doc and Louie’s (24280 Lorain Rd., N. Olmsted, 7pm – 11pm) features guest hosts ‘Furious’ George Hartwig and Gary ‘G Rock’ Stulak. Our sponsor each week is Dirty Town Guitar and Amps. As always, Doc’s amazing burgers (w/fries) are $4.95 all night and margaritas are $3 until 9pm. There’s plenty of parking in Doc’s front and back lots, O’Reilly’s back lot and their front lot after they close at 9pm. Full backline (two guitar amps, bass amp, Sonor drums, Alesis QS6 keyboard and PA) is provided, so bring your favorite axe, sticks or just your party attitude and dancing shoes and come join the fun!

If you missed last Saturday’s show, you’re in luck! This Friday, Shady Drive (w/Chris Hanna) and the North Coast Horns are headed to the Savannah Bar and Grill (30676 Detroit Road, Westlake, 9pm – 1am) to rock the night away playing your favorite swing, blues, R&B and classic rock tunes. The Savannah features a spacious dance floor and great food and drinks, so dust off your dancin’ shoes and join us this Friday night for a rockin’ good time!

On Saturday, Shady Drive is back in trio configuration for our monthly appearance at The Bier Haus (17692 Pearl Rd., Strongsville, 8:30pm – Midnight). The food there is just amazing and they feature dozens of craft beers. Not to mention the owners and staff rock the house in their own right with service that can’t be beat. Come join us! You’ll be glad you did!

That’s all for this week! We’ll talk soon…
