Music in May

Rock and Roll Diary


The month of May was a great month for musical adventures.  I had over ten shows in eight different cities and towns in two states.  Cinco De Mayo was great this year and it couldn't have been celebrated at a better venue (The Fat Cactus on RT1 in Lynnfield). The end of May also brought the start of season for playing at Daddy's Beach Club at Nantasket Beach.

The Hancock Tavern in Quincy

May started with a nice show at The Hancock Tavern in Quincy Mass.


My friend Dennis Diver made a guest appearance at The Hancock Tavern.


It was a great night with family and friends at the show.




More pics from the Hancock Tavern show online here.

Chubby's Bar in North Providence

It was a really fun night at Chubby's Bar in North Providence in May.


My friends Chris, Bob, Tina, and Chris came from the Worcester area for the show.   



Chris #1 and Chris # 2 are in the band Touched. 



Check that band out if you have a chance, they rock!  


Chris and I jammed on a couple songs too. :-)

Cinco De Mayo


I couldn't think of a better venue to play for Cinco De Mayo than the Fat Catcus on RT1 in Lynnfield, Mass.



The Margaritas were flowing and people were celebrating the holiday in style.















There were three music acts on the bill that day and I played the 4PM to 8PM shift.



It was great gig with lots of sing-a-longs, people getting into and act and some dancing too.


I met some nice folks there that day.




More pics from Cinco De Mayo online here. Starting now through the Summer I am playing every 1st and 3rd Sunday evening at The Fat Cactus in Lynnfield from 5PM to 9PM!


JP Greer's in Weymouth


I played a show at JP Greer's in Weymouth in May. Fun times!


I was joined for a set by my friend Chrissy White.  


St John's Athletic Club


Chrissy White also played a guest appearance at St John's Athletic Club in Fall River in May.  


The folks there love it when Chrissy joins me because there are Jethro Tull fans and we play a lot of tunes that they like with Chrissy on the flute.


Sunday Funday at Hajjar's


May was a great 'Sunday Funday' at Hajjar's in Weymouth in May.




Yaz's Place

I played a Thursday night show at Yaz's Place in Quincy.   They are starting to ramp up having live music regularly there.



KC's Pub in Weymouth


I had a fun gig at KC's Pub in Weymouth in May.


It was a fun night.


O'Toole's in Whitman


I had a blast playing at O'Toole's in May.


My friend Kim got up to sing 'Every Rose Has It's Thorn.'  I love it when people 'get into the act.'  My friend Dan got up and sang a few tunes too.

More pics from O'Toole's online here.

Jake's Bar in East Bridgewater


I played a Sunday afternoon show at Jake's Bar in May.


Chrissy White joined me for a set.


Looking forward to playing a weekend night show there in the fall.  More pics online here.

Fat Cactus in Randolph


I got some great feedback from the folks at The Fat Cactus in Randolph in May.


Looking forward to playing there again Friday July 6th.  More pics online here.

McGuiggan's Pub in Whitman


I had a nice night playing at McGuiggan's Pub in May.


It is so nice to see friends at shows.

Jimmy Peters fans would rather fight than switch :-)
Daddy's Beach Club Kick Off


The last show of the month was at Daddy's Beach Club at Nantasket Beach.


It was a fun start to the Summer season.


Awesome to have fans 'in the house'.


Looking forward to a great summer playing music at Daddy's Beach Club on Nantasket Beach.  


THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SHARED GOOD TIMES WITH ME IN THE MONTH OF MAY!

Peace, Love, and Live Music
