Hi gang!

Is it spring yet? I’m ready for it, and I’m sure you are too. :c) This past week, we did our best to make winter a little more bearable. The CMC Jam on Tuesday night featured guest hosts Brian ‘Jimi’ Davidson and Bill March, sponsor Dirty Town Guitar and Amps, jammers John Kerver, Greg McGill, Bob Laeng, Hichem Ferrah, Mal Mapes, Luke Pernici, Kevin “Hollywood” Fancher, Alyssa Chace, Tim Hayden, Dan Elliott, Don Lydon, Eric, Marco, Mark, Joe S., The Cottom Catz (Mike Cottom, Mike Cottom, Chloe Cottom) and Corey Basco. Hanging out and enjoying all the fine music were Victoria, Vern, Katy, Jacqueline, John, Martha, the Dancing Marilyns and the rest of the “Frog” faithful. Congratulations to drawing winners Luke Pernici and Mike Cottom and thanks to ALL of you for coming out!

On to Saturday night and Shady Drive’s show at 42 Eighty. We had a blast partying the night away with Karen, Paul, Steve, George, Tammie, Rachel, Tony, Dave, Tommy, Kathleen, Dave and all of the 42 Eighty gang! We’ll be back there on March 1.

Coming up this week…

The Cleveland Music Club Jam happens every Tuesday at Bullfrog’s Sports Cafe (33137 Center Ridge Rd., N. Ridgeville, 8:30 – 12:30) This week’s guest hosts are G.S. Harper and Kevin “Hollywood” Fancher. Our sponsor each week is Dirty Town Guitar and Amps. 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 dancin’ shoes and come join the fun!

On Saturday, Shady Drive takes a break from recording our CD to head out to the fabulous Fairview Tavern (21867 Lorain Rd., Fairview Park, 9:30pm – 1:30am) for our monthly appearance there. Come party with us and enjoy one of the Tavern’s delicious dishes (try the $10 strip steak special!) and some frosty cold beverages while we play your favorite classic rock and blues tunes!

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

Mike :c)
