Let's see... Katie Geddes and the Usual Suspects will be busy this next few
months. We play Trinity House in Livonia in a series of cabaret-style benefits
on May 14, 15, 20 and 21. Then The Ark on May 26. Then a full-length show at
Trinity House on June 26. Then the Art Fair Stage on whatever that Thursday is.
Nicola's Books on Aug 7. Green Wood Coffee House in November. We're hoping
to get to do an in-studio appearance on Folks Like Us on WDET before the May
Ark show.
Ya`ll will be sick of us in pert-near no time!

It turns out that my friend Juli from work did the painting on Mr. Largebeat's
new CD and that one of the songs (Julie's got a Telescope) is about her.
I think that's pretty cool. I will have to try to make the release show.
(IS there smoking at the Heidelberg?)

I've met Juli! Yes, I believe smoking is permitted at the Heldelberg.
Have't seen Juli since I ran into her at TC's Speakeasy several months ago.

Upstairs at the Heidelberg can get _quite_ smoky. I assume this thing will
be upstairs, not down in the restaurant part?

The Mr. Largebeat show will be in the upstairs room of the Heidelberg.

I don't know if this qualifies as an "on stage" announcement or not.
The annual Frankenmuth Ragtime Festival is this weekend: Thursday,
April 22 to Sunday, April 25. I'm not on the official program, but I'm
sure I'll be banging out a tune or three at the after-hours open mike
(actually, "open piano") sessions in Zehnder's Tap Room on Friday and
Saturday nights after the dinner concerts.

Watroba Fri night at his show.

Here's my retro announcement: This past Saturday I was in the band for the
25th annual Asian Martial Arts Studio banquet. I played bass, and this year
we had a fantastic drummer. Lots of fun.

I'll probably post this again in about 2 weeks:
Tuesday May 4 at 8:00 P.M. (I think) I'll be at the Heidleberg for the
poetry slam semi finals, and everyone should come out and throw rottem
fruit at me.

On Sunday evening I will be the soprano soloist for two Bach
cantatas with the Bach Chorale, in a performance at 7:30 PM in
the Congregational Church at William and State. The two
cantatas are #21 and #129. Admission is free, though donations
will be solicited for Food Gatherers.

Unfortunately, grex was down most of Sunday. I should have made
the announcement sooner. Sorry about that.

Yippie (and all that) tomorrow is the semifinals for the Ann Arbor poetry slam
at the Heidleberg, I called and left a message on the coordinators answering
machine to RSVP so, come hell or high water (or starting to hitch hike at one
in the morning) I will be there to compete. There will be much appreciation
given to anyone who decides they want to come and hear me spew my poetry in
hopes of getting to the next round
Remember: if you really want you can bring rotten fruit to throw at me :)

oops...forgot to mention the time:
Open mic starts at 8:00 pm and the slam starts around 9:00 pm, for anywone who
doesn't know, the heidleberg is on main st...somewhere, which doesn't do a
whole lot of good, considering there are a lot of things on main st somewhere,
but I don't have the address, so I suppose I could have left that bit out

It's on North Main between Ann and Miller. I walk by it frequently, but I've
never been inside. Maybe I'll show up this time.

Well, I managed to place 5th (with a 49.3 out of 60) so I'll be going
back June 1 (Joe walks off pouting about there not being enough rotten
fruit this time around)

Here's an early warning announcement for my next recital:
Friday, May 21, at 8 PM, in the Northside Community Church,
I'll be giving a solo voice recital. My accompanist will be
Kevin Bylsma. There will be songs by Schubert, Puccini,
Debussy, Irving Fine, and Lee Hoiby. I will be wearing a
gorgeous gown. There will be a reception afterward. Fun
will be had by all.
