A Valentine's Day Concert

      Last weekend I had the privilege of playing a Valentine's Day benefit concert at the Brunswick United Methodist Church. This was to raise money for the church ( and see how many items could be made out of chocolate). Mitch Thomas (vocals, piano) led the group along with Kristen Thomas (vocals) and Jeff Munson (bass). We played love song repertoire that ranged from show tunes to jazz standards. It came off well, and we all experienced a chocolate sensation afterwards.
                                                   A chocolate fountain on one table...
                                                    Balloons tied to hymnals.
                                                    Here is where we played.
                                                    This is my setup now. I use the Ibanez acoustic amp as a monitor. 
                                                    My telecaster has a stereo split.
                                                    Chocolate and coffee mix-- I didn't try it.

This same show was repeated (minus Kristen) at the Chapman House assisted living community in Auburn the following week. I may return to that location to play for the residents-- there is an audience that appreciates everything.

More gigs to come!
