Before I talk about gigs, let me mention...

canned heat. Canned Heat! Canned Heat! CANNED HEAT!

Boogie, boogie, boogie, great show with Canned Heat at the Rhythm Room last Wednesday. Very little left of the original line-up, of course, just the drummer, but it was blues and boogie all night long, kept me moving and grooving long after the show was over.

And 2, count 'em, 2 new shows for me playing with Entourage coming up at the end of this month. We'll be playing Wednesday, June 27th, at the Encanto Clubhouse, where we will be performing the 30 minute second set starting at about 8:30PM. Encanto Clubhouse is maintained and administered by the City of Phoenix Parks Department in downtown Encanto Park and is located approximately 1/4 mile South of Thomas Road on the East side of 15th Avenue. The following Saturday, June 30th, we play at the Music Corner, located at Shepherd Of The Valley Lutheran Church on the north west corner of 15th Avenue and Maryland Avenue. That set begins at approx. 9:15PM. (You can find all info about The Music Corner at : www.themusiccorner.org.)

I had 2 great shows at the Annual Folk Arts Fair in Prescott on June 2nd, one with Brass Ring and the other with Entourage. The energy was good and even though we were the last acts of the day, people stopped to listen. Both groups are full of talented people and lots of energy, it's a blast to play with both of them!

Here's a picture of Entourage - See you soon, Don
