Hey kids… A little while ago, we went to a ukulele fest, in S. Indiana. The Brown County Ukulele Festival. Good times. Great friends. Fab tunes…. Got to see peeps irl, that we hadn’t seen in a long time, and hear some amazing musicians… If you are interested, keep your eyes open, for the dates, etc…
Again….Good times. Good friends. Great tunes. Lucky to be alive….
Been a couple weeks since I posted. Been busy getting ready for this adventure… We left at 3am cst, for Pennsylvania and a ton of fun…
Spent the night in Somerset, Pa, cuz it’s too difficult to drive all the way in one day…
Made it to Pottstown/Boyertown the next day, and the fun begins…
It was a great trip/adventure. Kelly, and Funky Frets killed it…. So many good friend, and fun… Kurt, Kendra, Cheryl, Pete/Dee, Diane, Sharla, Louise, and 182 other close/new friends… And now, onto more fun!!
We’ve been decorating for the holidays…
Hi there…. So, today is our 27th wedding anniversary, and, to ‘celebrate’ we went on a tour of the two Frank Lloyd Wright sites within 1/2 hour of our home…. The first, is the Laurent House… The only design he did for special needs…
Then, we went over to Belvidere, Il, to see the Petit Chapel, one of Wrights early designs
We are lucky to have two distinct examples of his work, so close to home….
Hey kids… So, we have a couple gigs this weekend… We play Friday at 4:30pm, and, Saturday morning, at 11:35am, at the Two Rivers Bluegrass Festival. So will several other amazing musicians. It’s free. Come out, it’ll be fun! And, to make it more interesting for me, I will play bass for/with the amazing Grass Attack, at 5ish Friday, and 11ish Saturday morning.
Our latest, new, surprise gig, will be Sunday, 12:30-2ish, in Mount Morris, Il, at the Straw Sculpting Festival. Amazing sculptures, made from straw. Yes, that is why the name….
Hey kids… Last night- Saturday- was a fun evening. We were invited to play at the ‘Pizza on the Farm’ event, at Inn Serendipity, for the Wisconsin Soil Sisters… Fun time. The Inn is an off grid, B&B/farm, and Soil Sisters are a group of women farmers, that work together to help each other. Both are way cool… A good crowd, and amazing food. The pizza was killer, and, other tasty foods- salads, cheeses, finger food… All soooo good… Thank you again, for asking us to be a part of this fun, worthy event!
Hey kids… So, blowing our own, local horn… Last Friday, or as some say, Friday last, we- The Magtones– played the acoustic stage ( it’s a spot, not a stage, actually) at the local city market… That is quite a feather in our small caps… We played from 5 to 8pm, and had a lot of fun… Our amazing, and very nice friend Michael August, was nice enough to join us for the fun… And, it’s always more fun when he plays/jams with us, or anyone, for that matter….
Hi. So my lovely wife, through the local art guild, has a showing at Katie’s Cup, through the month of August. She does beautiful, happy, art… Paintings are on display, and, for sale…
Stop by, sometime, have a really good coffee- they make excellent coffee, and lunch- and take a look at several artists work, from the local art guild…
Hey kids… So, we have a gig on Friday, July 29th, from 5:00-8:30pm, downtown at the Acoustic stage, at City Market. Our VERY special guest is the amazing Mike August… That makes it extra fun! The acoustic stage is by the fountain, on Water St, just north of Market St. (The City Market hours are 4-8:30pm. We play from 5:30-8:00pm). C’mon down, have some fun, food, and tunes… We hope we see you!!!!
