Good Morning Fun Seekers,
Our summer season has
arrived, maybe not by the calendar, but our outdoor venues and festivals are
opening this weekend. And by the looks of it the weather gods are
providing a great "blue sky and sun" weekend. Where else in the world
would you want to be??
First up is the Downtown Edinboro Art & Music Festival.
It begins with an Art Show opening at Parker's Gallery today at 6:00pm and runs
through Saturday night. I have noted some of the outdoor music below but
you can get the full schedule in today's Showcase.
The line up for this years
"Tuesday Series at ARTPARK" near Niagara Falls looks
interesting: Kansas, Foreigner, Huey Lewis and the News, Yes, Procol Harum,
Heart, Steve Miller Band, Peter Frampton, Sheryl Crow, Charlie Daniels. If
any of those names are of interest to you visit ARTPARK's web site.
Tickets go on sale Saturday. Or stay here in Erie for "Eight Great
Tuesdays", tickets not required.
THURSDAY---
Catch the wind at the Erie Yacht Club with Rodger
Montgomery and the Breeze Band. Then warm up at
the Colony Pub and Grill with the Colony Jazz
Band.
FRIDAY--- Start
your weekend off with a Vegas-styled party brought to you by the Erie
Philharmonic at The Bel-Aire. ($75) Guy
Martone will be standing in for Frank Sinatra. But if that is not
you there is plenty else to do. JD Jazz is playing at the
Docksider at 6:30. But being such a wonderful evening you
may want some outdoors so head to Edinboro for two good choices. Start at
Edinboro Lake Resort (6:30) on route 99, on the patio
overlooking the lake, with Matt Texter. Then the
Heliotropes are at The Performance Barn at Goodell
Gardens in Edinboro at 7:30. And then you could be off to
The Riverside for Hultman and Barb Songbook at
8:00. Back in town at 8:00 you will find the Bill Burke
Trio at the Baybreeze Lounge. There is also
plenty to do until the wee hours tonight. Outdoors at The
Sloppy Duck you can enjoy The M-80's
under the tent. In the West Village the Breeze Band is at
The Sandbar and Taylor Maid is at the
Oasis. But you will have to travel to see one of our
favorites at Peek'N Peak. Shally and The
Riffriders will be worth the trip.
SATURDAY--- If
you want to start real early join area veterans at Rainbow Gardens for the
Vets Rock Erie Event. They are
fundraising for the Erie County Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the fun begins at
1:00 with 6 Bands playing throughout the day and evening. Lake
Effect will play at 7:30 with two new female vocalist. That alone is
worth the price of admission. ($25 per couple). Also during the afternoon
you can catch Eric Brewer and Friends (3:00) and Ron
Yarosz and the Vehicle (4:00) at Goodell
Gardens. After all this afternoon fun you should be ready for
dinner. The Heliotropes are playing at Alto
Cucina and Tom Hitt is at
Casablanca. Next up at the 8:00 hour Jon
Halmi is hosting an Open Mike at Bobby's Place and
Charysma is playing at Old Station 1 in
Harborcreek. To finish the night strong Downtown has The
BluesBeaters at The Avalon, The Bayfront provides the
setting for Taylor Maid at The Sloppy
Duck and out in the West Village you will find Blues
DeVille at Rocco's Tavern. I guess you are going
to have to make some choices.
SUNDAY--- To
keep that outdoor thing going this evening head to Dobbin Landing, find a seat
on the patio at The Cove and catch Jon Halmi
at 6:30 and The Dock Boys at 7:30.
MONDAY--- For
lunch stop by Presque Isle Gallery and enjoy Tom
Hitt (12:30)
WEDNESDAY---
Doesn't it seem all days are filling up with the sounds of music. Start
off a happy hour at the Colony Pub and Grill with
Bob Ferragine. Then move into The Warehouse District and
catch a "every other Wednesday" event with Marty O'Connor and
Friends at Bobby's Place. Or catch the
"Next Generation" Concert at General
McLane H.S. Featured will be jazz bands from Fort LeBoeuf,
Harborcreek, McDowell and of course General McLane High Schools with some help
from Steven Hawk with the Misery Bay Big
Band.
So maybe Tuesday you will be free to discuss real
estate. Give me a call.
