A Busy Kickoff To The Summer
Posted by Musician | Filed under Performances
Although we’ve not had much to say here, we’ve been busy as a group.
On June 12 (the night of Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final) we played to what eventually became a full house at the Gourmet Gallery. Although the evening started off with lots of empty seats, by the time the game was over, the staff at the Gourmet Gallery were kept busy as patrons filled the place to close to capacity. This was our last show of the season at the Gallery. We look forward to playing back there again in fall.
This last week we’ve fit in an extra rehearsal in order to make sure that we have a chance to go through the 4 sets we are going to need for this coming weekend’s shows at the Church Of The Bues in Dewdney. We will be playing at the old Historic Dewdney Pub on Saturday from 8:30 PM to 12:30 AM. Then on Sunday we’ll be back hosting the blues jam from 3:00 to 7:00 PM.
The blues jam has become a Sunday afternoon institution at the Church Of The Bues, with some very talented local players coming out regularly. Personally, I have really enjoyed getting a chance to play with Gerald Charlie, Corey Lavigne & Dave Conroy. Hopefully they will come out again, and will be joined by other talented performers as well.
Hopefully you’ll be able to join us out at the Church Of The Bues, AKA the Historic Dewdney Pub, on either Saturday, the 27th, or for the jam on the 28th.
