Late '17 News

 

* The Dawdlers are playing Silo's in Napa for the first time on Thursday, 12/28, and are really looking forward to bringing the holiday cheer to Napa (Tom'll have it in his trunk)! We want to make a splash with this one, so PLEASE SHARE THIS INFO, and if you haven't seen us in awhile, or ever, or indoors (we look even younger indoors), please come to this one, and ask your friends, neighbors, city council, bowling league, and knitting circle to come as well, as we'd like to get invited back, and consolidate Napa as another Near North Bay stronghold for the band (Eric Wood will be with us on the "skins" again that night - see below - and again there within 48 hours with Forejour!).   We hope to see a mess of you there!   P.S. We'll also be doing a brief RADIO SPOT promotion of the gig on Napa's KVYN next Friday, 12/22, at around 8:30 AM (a GREAT time to sing!), and the live feed that day can be heard HERE: http://www.993thevine.com/   Read more

September-Early October Shows

* Sunday afternoon, October 2nd we'll again play the now and FINALLY beered-up Lucca Beer Garden (also on 1st St. in Benicia), from 1-4 PM, and closing out the 2016 Benicia World Tour!

Thursday, September 29th, Drew & I will make our first appearance at Silo's in Napa, 7 PM. We might be the only Lennon & McCartney tribute group around (anywhere, really), so come help us have a good maiden voyage there. We sing purdy good together, and it's Napa; how can you lose?

* On Saturday, October 8th, I'll play solo again here in my Martinez backyard, at The Clubhouse Grill, 6:30-9:30 PM, with perhaps a guest sit-in or two (one never knows). 528 Center Ave., Martinez, CA (925) 957-6908
