The Summer of Swing Begins!
Sunday, June 21
Hey, friends!
Last week we had two really fun gigs. The first was a house concert in the extremely well-equipped back yard of Gord & Chris McAulay. They gathered 40 or so friends on Thursday night for our first free house concert in the Summer of Swing as we work toward our goal of pre-selling 500 copies of the soon-to-be recording Go Fat Daddy. (Click right to learn more, and how you can become involved!)
It was a great success, with us getting a BIG step closer to our goal...and we had a great night meeting a bunch of wonderful folks, including Patti from the Blues Festival, Len & Linda, Mo, , Mama B, and the gang from Potash. Even Bill from Long & McQuade showed up, just to see if the new mike he sold me was as great as he'd made it out to be! :) (It is! Thanks, Bill!) We'll post photos as soon as we get them--here and on Facebook...
Last night (Friday), was a beautiful night to be on the river, and we were there with a group of hearty river-goers for our second cruise on the Saskatoon Princess of the 2009 summer season. There are five more dates left from now until the end of August, and Val from Shearwater Tours says tickets are going at a good clip, so if you're interested, please call them soon for your tickets! www.shearwatertours.com.

More coming up soon in this summer of swing!
