Hi gang!
Tuesday’s CMC Jam was just off the hook, as one could expect for a St. Patrick’s Day. Many thanks to hosts Rob Hayes and Bill March, jammers John Hamley, John Kerver, Bob Laeng, Greg McGill, Phil O., Bob DeVries and to our faithful supporters, Vern, Kathy, Helen, George, Dawn, the Dancing Marilyns and the rest of the ‘Frog Faithful.’ Thanks also to our sponsor Dirty Town Guitar and Amps and to the staff and management of Bullfrog’s Sports Cafe for giving us something to do to stay out of trouble on Tuesday nights. ;c)
On Saturday, Rob and I debuted our acoustic duo, “Slim n’ Shady” at the Blue Turtle Tavern to one of the most wonderful crowds I’ve ever had the pleasure to perform for. Huge thank yous to Amanda, Jason, Maggie, Lisa, Jimmy, Dennis, Erika, Suann, Mike, Sandy, Ken, Mark, Jess and Joy for coming out to make our debut a huge success!
