My View of Life on the Dock
Last weekend Marty Rowen, Dave Mattacks, and Dave Brown put on an extraordinary show for an appreciative crowd at the Dog Bar. Singer Chelsea Berry added another dimension when she joined the group later in the night. Owner Andy Mulholland is hoping that this band will be a Dog Bar regular. Be sure to catch this group in the near future. You’ll be glad you did.

From Andy-
“Dog Bar Gift Certificates make the perfect gift this holiday season. Available in any denomination, Dog Bar Gift Certificates are the one size fits all gift that keeps on giving by creating lasting memories of timelessness that never goes out of style. So this holiday season, put a sparkle in that special someone’s eye by giving Dog Bar Gift Certificates – because your loved ones deserve nothing less. And in the spirit of the season, we are giving all gift givers 10% off of our already low priced Dog Bar Gift Certificates, which makes them an even more perfect yuletide gift.”

Back by globular demand! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Lisa Marie! That’s right, folx, no tickee, no laundree, so get your butt down here Thursday and shake your booties to the booty bleat.
I don’t have to tell you about her smood singin’, her brash blaring, her total control of da megaphonium of de blooze. Plays a mean tambourine, too, or three. It’s gwine be a party to end all parties!
Backing her up will be long-time missing saxaphonier and general cooldude, Mr. Rick Razdan. We haven’t had the pleasure in a long time as he has been recovering from botched weenis cosmetic surgery. However, we now got the green light! Greg T. will be there, too as well as myself.
So, put down that knitting and grab your walker and c’mon down…if you still got the strength…

Backing him up will be Mr. Greg Dann, drumnist for Secret Cervix and all around nice guy, and, of course, Greg T. and myself. An enjoyable nite!
And don’t forget: all you under-employed folks with time to spare, c’mon down to the Rose Baker Senior Center next Monday for some swingin’ jazz and dixieland courtesy of the ol’ Salty Jazz Band. I’ll be there. Blast off is at 1 Pm

Elegant Trash – Cameron’s
Saturday June 20th 9pm
9:00pm – Dog Bar was packed. Chelsea Berry was setting up for a night of music promoting her new CD. With a keen sense of humor and bluntness, the singer-songwriter kept the audience entertained for hours. She sang her own songs as well as covers that were meaningful to her. More than once, the only sound in the room was Chelsea’s incredible music. Her cover of Susan Werner’s “May I Suggest” brought tears to many listeners’ eyes. She invited Pete Lindberg, Bradley Royds and a cast of others to round out the night. What a show!
Go listen for yourself at the Rhumb Line around 7:30 Sunday night where she’ll be playing with friend and cohort Pete Lindberg. You’ll be glad you did.
You can read more about Chelsea in Mike Lindberg’s (Pete’s dad) post here on GMG.
THURSDAY MAY 28th
From Dave Sag on the Rhumb Line’s Thursday Night Blues Party–
This Thursday sees the triumphant return of two musical monsters: Keyboard millipede and vogalist xtremondo Mr. Joe Bargar and three-fisted drummber Mr. Joey Scrima. We have’nt seen Joey in awhile, due to a horrible inkjet printer accident and we’re happy to have a copy of him to flail the nite away. Joe, of course has been here more recently. He’s a busy guy and I’m glad to have him back once again. Look out for his gut-wrenching version of the classic “Drown in my own tears” : I’m bringin’ my hanky, and an EMT will be on call for those of you with heart problems. As for the rest of us, Greg T. and I will be on duty, just tryin’ to keep up.
See you there!
