The Orleans Trio
Best known for “Dance With Me” and “Still the One,” Orleans has more than earned its place in American pop culture history, and continues to sound better than ever. The Orleans Trio, with original members Lance and Larry (lead voice on ALL the hits) Hoppen, plus Dennis “Fly” Amero is an intimate, “unplugged” version of this prestigious and legendary group. Their vibrant harmonies, deep/broad catalog of classics and impressive NEW tunes, along with signature guitar work are proof that Orleans, in any configuration, is indeed “STILL THE ONE” and “STILL HAVIN’ FUN”! Their audience rapport, humor, onstage chemistry and versatility make this show a favorite for lovers of all live music.

Kevin’s photography and eye is very similar to how I would ideally compose my shots if I was one tenth the photographer that he is.
Bernie in Haiti Question
Hi Joey and Others at GMG,
I’m a nurse and
love the photo of Bernie in Haiti with her GMG bumper
sticker. I’m posting it up in my office where lots of other nurses visit
and I know everyone’s going to love the photo too and want to know more about
Bernie and her mission. Can you share? Thanks.
Peg O’Malley.

Whale Sighting

An extremely happy whale has been spotted just outside Bean & Leaf on Bearskin Neck. This sculpture is attributed to uber-Rockporter Tom (he’s the guy who’s been walking around with the snow shovel for the last 8 weeks digging everybody out downtown). Stop by Bean & Leaf to check it out in person – and get a cup of coffee to sustain you while you’re at it!
