Requests / Inquiries about shows

I am working with a few folks to line up some shows for Parkersburg among the group of musicians I stay in contact with. These are requests for listening room type shows which I hope will work out. Stay tuned.

Todd Snider Dec 30 at Stuart's

I am looking forward to Todd Snider's show at Stuart's in Nelsonville on December 30th. Its been a while since I have seen Todd; and since November's Dirty Dozen Brass Band that I have caught a show at Stuart's.

The Greens are to the point of mixing and fine tuning the recordings that will be their new CD. I have listened to it and am excited for its release.
The Greens play at 123 Pleasant St. on New Year's Eve in Morgantown.

Greens last night in Parkersburg

The Greens came all deck out in matching warm up outfits- bright Green pants and tops; looking all spiffy. 6 Pence Pub in Parkersburg was the place; cold was the night. The Greens warmed up the audience in the first part of the evening with classics from their song list; waiting for that little nuanced turning point when the first dancers got out there, and then turned it into a rocking dance fest clear to the end. The Greens introduced (to the Parkersburg audience) a few new songs. A good crowd was out; not as big perhaps as the Thanksgiving weekend shows, but nonetheless a big crowd. The Greens booked shows on into 2011 with Kim, guaranteeing lots of good evenings on music on into 2011 for the Parkersburg Greens fans.
