The Launch Pad starts Wednesday March 24 at 8:00PM in the lounge of Churchill Park United Church, located at 525 Beresford Avenue (Beresford & Nassau) in Fort Rouge. The Featured Act is Doug Glenn at 8:00PM, followed by open mike acts. If you have a talent for music, spoken word, improv, comedy, juggling........whatever, come on down and sign up. Acts so far confirmed include; Tom Donahue, Tall Order Improv, the Meadowlark Orchestra (John Hodgert and Tony Buchner), Paul Hodgert (and guests?), stars of Gordie’s Coffee House, and surprise guests. Doors open at approx. 7:30PM. Come early and sign up, and/or just groove. Be there or beware! Coffee and tea are available at nominal charge, with proceeds to the expenses of the LP. Voluntary donations will go to the Featured Act and to the LP. Peace. Hang Loose. Flower to the People!
At long last, the final mixing and mastering of the Boat Song has been accomplished. When I get a minute I’ll post it here. Thanks to; Paul Hodgert (producer, rhythm guitar, organ, piano, bass, lead vocal on bridge, back-up vocals, co-arranger, boy wonder), Tony Buchner (lead guitar, 2nd lead guitar, hombre), Luke Bergen (drums, vocals on bridge, rock star), and me (executive producer, lead vocals, back-up vocals, co-arranger, ham). The whole story of the writing of the book, and the writing and recording of the songs is contained in the blogs herein, beginning with the ‘Apr 2009’ entries.
I’ll be doing a gig of readings and songs from ‘Except My Love For You’ on March 23, for a River Heights book club - at a private home in the area. I love these outings, especially when (as in this one), they’ve read the book. If your book club (or any other existing or gathered group) might want a presentation, go to the Home Page for contact info for the publishers, Bendecido Books, or contact me via this website
I am re-editing the first 80,000 words of my new novel (working title ‘The Tourist’), and sending batches of the results to my friends Darren Fast and Eric Warwaruk for comments. Kind of an experiment in modern serialization. Anybody out there that wants to join the experiment, please use the ‘Comment’ feature below.
Tonight - Gordie’s Coffe House, 8:00PM at Gordon King United Church.
