Well it’s been a while since my mac has been down so I decided to spring for the iPad. I tell you, this is a slick little device. Although it has some short comings, it is a blast to use. Looks like I’ll be back on the blog as soon as everything is setup.

Gloucester Battle Of The Bands Fri and Saturday April 9th and 10th

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

City leaders, concerned musicians and the Gloucester Fishermen’s Athletic Assoc. have banded together to create a Battle of the Bands Weekend, Fri & Sat. April 9 & 10 at Gloucester High School Auditorium to raise money to help school sports and rebuild the crumbling bleachers at Newell Stadium so that football and other games can be played. Both events begin at 8 pm and feature the city’s top musical talent.

The Friday show is oriented more to younger bands and emcee’d by football record setter Connor Ressel, while the Sat. tilt features the cream of 7 area bands, headlined by Fly Amero, Allen Estes, Willie Alexander, The Tide and is emcee’d by the spectacular Linda Amero. Tickets are $10 for Friday and $20 for Saturday and 100% of the proceeds will go to save Gloucester sports, the stadium and cut sports fee’s for student athletes.

All parties are citizens committed to solving an immediate problem without waiting around for a cash strapped local government that can’t bail them out. For more info, email gordon@rampartsfarm.com


One Found, One to Go!

Posted on by capeannpainter

One of the Rocks I Sketched on and left on Pebble Beach was Found. Here is the Email I received;

“Cool, Found your Rock.. What a Great Idea! Love it! Keep it Up! Found on Sat. 3/27”

I was surprised with the nice  emails I received commenting about it. I thought it was a little Silly. But I guess you never know what will interest some people. Maybe because it’s FREE?

There is still one  left.  It was left on a Barrier Rock not far from the one that was found at Pepple Beach in Rockport.

It’s a little smaller than the one that was found. If anyone finds it and would like their photo on GMG just give me an email, It’s on the Rock. GOODLUCK?

Look for some more Art Rocks Strewn about Gloucester Soon.

I need a Name Like Sharon came up with for her game Where’s ZAT.  Hmmmm how about Find ZIT? Maybe Not.

message on a rock, I did'nt have any Bottles Handy.
Found
The Location where it was Found. The other one is a few rocks down from this one.
