A note from Gordon:
“Hi Y’All! It’s been a while since I was part of a performance in the round, but I am honored to have been invited to join Laurie O’Shea, Annie Sims and Bill Warrington in the round at a new place called VENUE 109 next Friday, 2/22/13. We go on at 9 P.M. and it looks like we will be playing until 10:30, which is a nice chunk of time for rounds these days.
Many of you know Laurie, who was just featured at the Co-Creators’ Coffeehouse, along with her husband Sean a couple of weeks ago. Her songs range from heartfelt to whimsical, and are frequently quite insightful. Annie, of course is the Music Director at Music City Center for Spiritual Living, and has some beautiful, uplifting material. If you’ve ever heard “Everything Everywhere”, you know what I am talking about. And Bill is a dynamic performer with a wide spectrum of songs ranging from funny to poignant. It should be a great night, and what will make it even better, is if you can attend. And thank you Laurie for inviting me. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or Laurie–one of us should know the answers. Hope to see you there.”
