I'd like to thank all those that came out to Open Mics I hosted during the off-season. It kept my chops up, we all drove each other to be better musicians, and I sure made a lot of new friends. Not only did C&C make some profit, but we sure had some fun times, didn't we?
It's all fun and games, 'til somebody pokes an eye out!...:
Because of my busy gigging schedule for the summer, this is the last Open Mic I will host at C&C for a long time. Please come on out and have it be a great one!
Hello, I think you've got the best coffee house in this region by far! Mainly because you host and support music and arts. Oh, and you all make some really good coffee! That said, if there are any musicians or artists that might be interested in checking out an all local social network just getting started, have a look at www.northmichiganmedia.ning.com . Plus if there is any band or musician that is interested in doing some video for the web, I'm the person to talk to. We can work a trade! Have a great day everyone. And thanks for having me here CC!
Have not been getting updates regarding Bliss Fest events, so I emailed Jim Gillespe. After a few days, I Emailed him again, and again. Finally, in frustration, for lack of any response, I sent a message saying that being a memeber has no real value, I can look in the newspaper for Bliss Fest events. Thought being a member was more than just giving the Bliss Fest $17.00. I hear local talent, of which we have much and should support, rarely if ever get the main stage, or paid at the Bliss Fest. So, in a final message to the same person, Jim Gillespe, I sent the message, hey, just give me a refund!!! In about four days, I got a refund!!! Wow, so someone really was there ignoring my inquiry all along, they sure got my check back to me fast!! Think it's cause my name is Adolph??? I've been a good boy, can't figure why Jim would ignore my reasonable concerns, but not my request for my money back! So if you are not receiving anything for your membership, you might be better off with your $17.00.
These events have really taken off to be one of Petoskey's coolest, no-miss events. If YOU'RE cool, too, then you will most certainly want to be seen near it!...
(And when you come, wish me a happy birthday when you see me!...)
