Title: Coffee at 8:00 tonight
Post by: Dennis on May 22, 2015, 11:03:35 AM

 I was going to keep this quiet, but after last night's rehearsal, I decided I should share.

I used to be a semi-professional musician.  10 years ago I suffered meningitis which left me deaf in one ear and not much better in the other ear.  I abruptly quit playing music.  A got approached a few months ago by a local Rockabilly band (the "Chevys") who needed a stand up bass player.  I decided to give it a whirl.

After 10 years, I was a pretty scared about playing again, so we picked the most harmless, least pressure venue for my first show; Caf? Voltaire (Books & Co.)

We are playing only one set (14 songs) starting at 8:00 tonight.  No tickets or cover, just buy a cup of coffee.

If you are out for a ride this evening, it would be great to see some of my buddies.

Peace & Grease, Dennis

Good for you Dennis - the only thing I can play is a jukebox

My brother in law went (who you helped get papers on a bike for) and he said you guys were great.

I am also sorry I missed it.  Went to Vancouver for the weekend for a conference so was not around.  Better luck next time.
