Let's see.....
The Vancouver Jazz Festival is still on and arguably the best yet, with some pretty varied and strong acts.
Oh, yeah...
The Supreme Court finally put down that Right Wing nonsense in the US, by finally declaring same sex marriage to be legal in all states, and solidifying ObamaCare (who doesn't want universal healthcare except the 1%?).
and....
How about this awesome weather in Vancouver?! Global warming is treating the west coast kindly this year ....
NOW ON TO THE MUSIC ....
I'll list them in reverse order because I just can't save the best for last.....
The long awaited CD from Vancouver powerhouse singer Lisa Fennell is almost here!
The CD release party for 'By Request' will be at Ten Ten Tapas on Sunday July 5, at 7 pm, right after the Billy Dixon & Soultrain Express boat cruise. Lisa has a killer new album, and will be performing tunes from the new release. Billy and Gabriel will join as guests....
and....
Before that - this Monday, June 29 at 7pm, I'll be performing with the Urbana Big Band at the venerable Kitsilano Show Boat Stage at Kits Beach. This 18 pc band kicks ass!
Did you know Ten Ten Tapas (where I hold my regular Saturday eve gig), made the list of Top 20 Patios in Vancouver?! It has a remarkable waterfront patio, shaded just enough to not be too hot.....
I'll be there Saturday with my new red trumpet, and Lisa will likely drop in for a preview of her album with a few tunes...
