The last shows of July were really fun and I felt like I finished the month firing on all cylinders and hitting all the right notes.
Sand Dollar Bar July 24, 2016
The July 24th show at the Sand Dollar Bar was a blast. The Sand Dollar Bar is the best bar on the Cape and I have been fortunate to have a weekly summertime engagement there for the last 5 years. This show was destined to be a good time because friends were in the crowd that know how to have fun. Later in the evening the crowd waned but I was so happy when I saw some folks re-enter the place later and become really engaged in the show. A lady told me that she and her friends had bar hopped to another place and they liked my music better than the music at the other bar. That put a smile on my face.
Daddy's Beach Club July 25, 2016
The last solo show at Daddy's Beach Club in July was an awesome day at Nantasket Beach. A bunch of friends came out for the show including some friends I only get to see once or twice a year. I also got to meet my friend Sarah's new son!
Damien's Pub July 2016
The end of July included a show at Damien's Pub the King of Bars. Damien's in Hanson has the 'best pizza and coldest beer in town.' This show was also a reunion of sorts because I got to see some fan club VIPs that I hadn't seen in a long time. Seeing friends at shows is the best.
The last show of the month was at The Sand Dollar Bar on July 31st and it was an amazing night. I played a marathon performance from 5 PM to midnight and had a great response from the crowd.
Once again there were folks that I love in the crowd I hadn't seen in a while. Some were visiting from out of state.
Others got into the act and sang of played the tambourine. So fun!
Here is a video montage of pics along with a recording of a clip of a song from the performance. The video includes a nice bit of spontaneous applause at the end of the 'behind my head' guitar solo.
Music made life better in July!
