Pete Lindberg at Sidewalk Days

DSC_3022 [640x480]Pete is Mike’s son, and although they’re both talented musicians, they have very different interests and styles. You can see Mike and Pete playing around town each week. Tonight Mike is with “Groove” at Capt. Carlos- a CD release party. And Pete is often at the DogBar, Elliott’s, and the Rhumb Line.

Gloucester At Dawn, Corner Of Middle and Pleasant Street

I wonder what the economic climate was like when this building was built.   Buildings like this just aren’t constructed regularly in our day, I guess because it is cost prohibitive.  Do you think it came down to economics or just a sense of pride when the people who built this building designed and had it built?

Deadliest Catch T Shirts Signed By The Crew

FOB Kristin Michel just dropped off 6 Offiicial Deadliest Catch T Shirts which she says will be signed by a crew member of the Deadliest Catch at The Deadliest Catch Gloucester Little League Fundraiser Monday night at The Gloucester House.

Come down to Captain Joe and Sons Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, make a donation to Gloucester Little League and one of the six shirts will be yours.  Then go to the event to see the star Captains and have your shirt signed.

Here is the design-

Deadliest Catch Gloucester Fundraiser Update!

Hey Joey –

Just wanted to update you and the GMG readers about Monday’s fundraiser to benefit Gloucester Little League featuring Andy & Jonathan Hillstrand from the Time Bandit.

My phone is ringing off the hook today with people calling looking to see if we still have tickets.  The calls are coming from all over Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Maine.  The event was covered in the Herald today and we expect a feature story in The Beacon tomorrow.  I am hopeful that this event will be a sell-out, as was last year’s event featuring Sig Hansen.

People from “over the bridge” will have to buy their tickets at the door or come to Gloucester to get the tickets in advance.  Locals who want to attend the event should purchase their tickets at Jeff’s Variety in the next few days to assure that are guaranteed admission to the event.

Looking forward to seeing everybody there for a fun evening.

Kristin
