8:30 pm

For this gig, Ill be playing all new songs for a new record coming down the pike.

The working title is Temple Beautiful, the name of a long gone venue on Geary St. right between the Fillmore and the storefront church of one Reverend Jim Jones.

In a futile attempt to capture lightning bugs in a bottle and set them free, we’ve worked up a batch of songs all about San Francisco. Specials guests include Roy Loney and others (as we get our act together).

It’s all in there. Jack London to Mark Twain, from the Grateful Dead to the DK’s.

Songs include Emperor Norton in the Last Year of his Life to Willie Mays (Is Still Swinging for the Fence) to Trying to Get a Cab on a Saturday night…

Characters include Laughing Sal, Fillmore Slim to Carlos Guitarlos…

The Rickshaw is a pretty cool place. Added bonus: (for those of you with wheels), it’s not so hard to park around there. Pretty easy in fact.

Yours,

C
