Rock and Roll Diary


McGuiggan's Pub

November started out with a fun night at McGuiggan's Pub in Whitman Mass.

There was a nice group of folks there.  There is no jacket required but there were some well dressed gents there that night.

McGuiggan's is a very nice Irish place.  I love playing there.

More pics from the first show in November are online here.

I also played a show there later in the month.

Slapshotz

I played a show at Slapshotz in Avon in November.  Slapshotz is a fun sports bar in Avon.

The night went really well.

It's great to have friends in the crowd.

Fat Cactus (Randolph)

I played at The Fat Cactus in Randolph.

The Fat Cactus is a great Mexican restaurant located inside the Comfort Inn on RT 28 in Randolph right off of the highway.

Always good times at The Fat Cactus.  

There was sing alongs, a little dancing, and lots of requests.  It was a great night.

St John's Athletic Club

I usually play once a month at St John's Athletic Club on Rodman Street in Fall River.

I have played there for years and always feel welcome and among friends when I am there.  The songs and music groups they like there make the gig a joy because I love the same music.

It was a nice surprise in November when my cousin came to the show at St John's AC.

I had two fun shows at JP Greer's in November too.

We have been having a lot of fun on these Sunday evenings.

One night we got a conga line going and everyone in the place got in the line including the bartender and me (because I had sampled the song to repeat so I could join the line).  It was one of the funniest show moments ever.

Halloween weekend some folks were in the holiday spirit.

One of the shows my friend Chrissy White made a guest appearance.
