- our "Welcome Springtime Blues Festival" being held this Saturday
night April 9, 2011 at The Oak Tree Inn. Ruthie said we have to wear
Bluze Jeans to make the Blues come out of our souls. What ever. She had
ralphie whittle a guitar out of the Oak Tree in front of the place (I
hope the owner doesn't find out) you gotta see thisthing. We'll play
the Blues for you.
The Oak Tree Inn is newly renovated and really rates themselves on
their great bar and fantastic menu. Come on out and give it a try, I
promise a good time.

We're having a benefit for our good friend "Sergio
Baccanini" who passed away last month.. It will be held at the
"Parkside Tavern" in Pearl River NY on Sat April 23 from 1pm till 8pm.. We're
workin' out the details in the next couple of days.. We have a couple
of bands contributing their time and talent and it much appreciated! If
you or your bands want to play a set or just sit in for a tune a
two it would be great!
All musicans and players will get free beer, food & admission..
Their donation of course is their time and talent..All others will be
paying $20 per person/ $30 a couple ~ free beer & food.. All
donations will go directly to Sergio's wife Karen and family.. This is
a great cause for some great people.. So give a little bit of
yourselves and help out if you can.. An immediate response is necessary
to make arrangements and prepare flyers.. Feel free to forward this to
any friends that you think that might want to help out.. Thank You
Sincerely
Yours,
Freddo

Haverstraw, NY 10PM February 12th!
Kokopelli - by Ruth Mary Mesrobian - (Ruthie gave me
the Spirit of Music for Xmas!) Kokopelli is venerated by some Native
American cultures in the Southwestern United States. Kokopelli presides
over both childbirth and agriculture. He is also a trickster god and
represents the spirit of music. Ruthie explained that Kokopelli wanders
from village to village playing music and if you see him, you have to
feed him and buy him drinks :-D
Blueberry pie is my favorite with a
nice scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side, but the Blueberry Pie
Rockin' Blues Band is a rockin' blues band with drummer Doug Volpi
calling out tasty numbers featuring guitarists Ralph and Ruthie with
Freddo on bass. Rounding out the band is Gary on harmonica and
guitarist/violinist Gene.
