shirlJAM news...
Well, it's here, isn't it?! Woo hoo, time to get lazy, hazy, and crazy! When I was a kid, I looked forward to Memorial Day because it meant the end of the school year and the beginning of summer. Nothing but carefree days and late nights until after Labor Day. Now, it's the unofficial kickoff to "Gig Season"...lots of fun shows outdoors, in all kinds of settings. I've been fortunate enough to have had a pretty busy winter and spring in that department, but things are really ramping up now. I hope you can make it out to one of these upcoming dates to Jam with me!
GIG ALERT * GIG ALERT * GIG ALERT * GIG ALERT * GIG ALERT
At last, it's time for the shirlJAM SUMMER OF LOVE concert series! Taking you back to the sights and sounds of the Monterey Pop Festival, the Haight Ashbury scene, and Woodstock. Dust off those bellbottoms and beads, and join me for a magic carpet ride though the psychedelic sixties! Mike and I have been having such a blast putting this show together. Please join us for a great time. Hippie attire encouraged!! And rewarded :>). Bring a blanket, a lawn chair, some flowers in your hair...and let the sun shine in (or the groovy light show shine ON) you for a while! If you have an inner flower child (and don't we all?), you really don't want to miss this set!
