Erin Harpe and The Delta Swingers are going to the International Blues Challenge 2010 in Memphis.
Erin Harpe and The Delta Swingers won the blues challenge at Johnny D’s. They’re going to Memphis along with the duo act Cindy Daily and Satch Romano. I heard a new band there “ThrowDown” and man they were wild, wild enough to get me on the dance floor. Thank you Gracie for joining me. All the bands were great and I know it had to have been a wicked hard decision to make. Blues like I like it. Thank you all!
Congratulations to Erin Harpe and The Delta Swingers and Driving Blind for winning the first round. It was an excellent night of music five bands playing all types of blues. Second round goes to Gracie Curran and the High Falutin Band and The Throwdown Blues Band. The Lois Greco Band will be in the last day of competitions as well. I am so looking forward to this.

Congratulations To Local Music Acts Taking Home Boston Music Awards Honors!!!
As seen on GoodMornigGloucester
Hi Joey,
I love your blog!
I don’t know if this is of interest to you but thought I’d try.
George Hall, a Gloucester resident and guitar-playing fixture at the Rhumbline, is the lead guitarist for Kingsley Flood. The band just performed at the Boston Music Awards last night and took home the Boston Music Award for “Best New Artist of the Year”. I don’t know if you’ve caught them live but they play at the Rhumbline frequently, when they’re not travelling up and down the east coast. In fact, the Rhumbline holds a special place in their heart…they love the crowd there. Their CD “Dust Windows” topped the Amazon charts for quite some time as well. Check them out!
Also, Jen D’Angora of Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents won “Best Female Vocalist of the Year.” Tony Goddess of Gloucester is a guitarist with the band and his wife Sam Goddess is a back-up vocalist.
The awards were held at the Liberty Hotel in Boston and it was a sold-out event.
All around, a good night for recognizing some home-grown talent.
Thanks.
Gregg Z.

Thursday – 9:00 to 12:00 ~ Dave Sags Blues Party with special guest
From Mr Dave Sags,
OH, come all ye faithful… the Christmas Tree is lit (so is the band) and it’s counting down to that last green light of that quarter-mile.When it hits, you’re bound to quake, as the slicks screech and the hammer hangs and dem ol’ reindeer take off, hooves a-popping, bells a-rattling, ears a-ringin’ to that V-8 heat that can’t be beat. It’s Christmas time, pretty baby and to get all your noses turning red, we got the Queen of the north, Ms. Lisa Marie. She’s got the reins and the leadfoot to get ya where ya gotta go. We’ve purposely cut the brake lines for this one special performance. Hear her sing such xmas faves as “Santa’s got a lawyer” , ” Who left the grate closed?”, and “I saw Daddy kissing Santa Claus”. It’s sure to be the high point of any dead Christian’s holiday.
We got reindeer,too! The famous finger-flailer, John “Prancer” Cameron will be on the ivories. And citizen and weekend father, Mr. Steevie “Vixen” Chaggaris, will be on the egg-beaters whilst sitting on hiz own stool. Of course, Mr. Greg “Rudolph” Tee and myself will be there, too, drinking eggnog and Alka-Seltzer. Ask your doctor if Lisa Marie is right for you. Don’t look for premiums, as the cost of the finest precludes the use if them.
But, seriously, folks, Greg and I would like to thank each and every one of you who have helped to make this past year a little bit brighter. Without you, we’d be nothing.You have helped to make my Days sunnier!So, Merry Christmas, Seasons Greetings, Shalom, Kwanza, whatever, but have a merry! And, remember: live music is best!!

Ian McColl’s adaptation of Charles Dickens’
“A Christmas Carol”
As seen on GoodMorningGloucester
The spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future return to Blackburn Performing Arts in the annual production of Ian McColl’s adaptation of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol,” featuring a cast of 40 residents from Cape Ann.
The family-friendly show features caroling and dancing as the story of Ebenezer Scrooge unfolds. The audience will watch as Scrooge transforms from his miserly ways to a man eager to share in the tradition of giving. The spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future lead him on a mystical journey through which he discovers the true meaning of Christmas.
This year’s production features writer/director Ian McColl as Scrooge, Daniel Diamond in two roles, as Bob Cratchit as well as the spirit of Jacob Marley and Evie Gariepy as Mrs. Cratchit. The cast includes children, teens and adults in an array of roles including angels, urchins, spirits, townspeople, and of course the Cratchit family, including Tiny Tim who is being played by O’Maley student Jack Favazza.
Actors as young as 4 and as old as 60 are working together to tell this story to their Gloucester audience. The ghost scenes are not too scary, and the show is appropriate even for the youngest audience members – and, of course, it comes with a big happy ending.
McColl is thrilled when he sees former alumni return to see the production as part of the audience, and has been looking forward to the day when the next generation of children would carry on the tradition of their parents by taking part in the annual show. This year Bailee Militello, who is playing an angel, is the daughter of Brianna Saunders Militello, who played an angel and a Cratchit child in this production 15 years ago, fulfills McColl’s dream.
The cast will perform the show a seven times over the next two weeks when the words of Dickens once again will ring out under the stage spotlight.
Cast: Isaac Aiello, Bonnie Barrish, Anna Bonacorso, Alexis Brown, Zach Brown, Briana Bruni, Katie Burke, Richard Crowell, Jake D’Ambrosio, Zach DaSilva, Daniel Diamond, Alexis Exama, Jada Exama, Marissa Exama, Jack Favazza, Evie Gariepy, Christina Giambanco, Rosalia Giambanco, Alicia Gibney, Ava Glass, Belle Graves, Alexandra Legendre, Jessica Lupo, Melodey Mathews, Clara Mazo, Victor Mazo, Molly McCarthy, Ian McColl, Bailee Militello, Stefanie Millefoglie, Allie-Rose Nicastro, Linda York Robbins, Olivia Rodier, Sabrina Siragusa, Rachel Sternlicht, Sarah Urbanski, and Nancy Williams.
What: Ian McColl’s adaption of “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens
Where: Blackburn Performing Arts at 1 Washington St. in the Blackburn Building in Gloucester
When: Opening on Friday December 10th at 7:30 p.m. Performances are scheduled for Thursday, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. through Dec. 19th. Tickets are available at the door. $12.00 for adults and $10 for students and 65+

Hi Joey,
I love your blog!
I don’t know if this is of interest to you but thought I’d try.
George Hall, a Gloucester resident and guitar-playing fixture at the Rhumbline, is the lead guitarist for Kingsley Flood. The band just performed at the Boston Music Awards last night and took home the Boston Music Award for “Best New Artist of the Year”. I don’t know if you’ve caught them live but they play at the Rhumbline frequently, when they’re not travelling up and down the east coast. In fact, the Rhumbline holds a special place in their heart…they love the crowd there. Their CD “Dust Windows” topped the Amazon charts for quite some time as well. Check them out!
Also, Jen D’Angora of Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents won “Best Female Vocalist of the Year.” Tony Goddess of Gloucester is a guitarist with the band and his wife Sam Goddess is a back-up vocalist.
The awards were held at the Liberty Hotel in Boston and it was a sold-out event.
All around, a good night for recognizing some home-grown talent.
Thanks.
Gregg Z.

Erin Harpe and The Delta Swingers are going to the International Blues Challenge 2010 in Memphis.
Erin Harpe and The Delta Swingers won the blues challenge at Johnny D’s. They’re going to Memphis along with the duo act Cindy Daily and Satch Romano. I heard a new band there “ThrowDown” and man they were wild, wild enough to get me on the dance floor. Thank you Gracie for joining me. All the bands were great and I know it had to have been a wicked hard decision to make. Blues like I like it. Thank you all!
Congratulations to Erin Harpe and The Delta Swingers and Driving Blind for winning the first round. It was an excellent night of music five bands playing all types of blues. Second round goes to Gracie Curran and the High Falutin Band and The Throwdown Blues Band. The Lois Greco Band will be in the last day of competitions as well. I am so looking forward to this.

Congratulations To Local Music Acts Taking Home Boston Music Awards Honors!!!
Hi Joey,
I love your blog!
I don’t know if this is of interest to you but thought I’d try.
George Hall, a Gloucester resident and guitar-playing fixture at the Rhumbline, is the lead guitarist for Kingsley Flood. The band just performed at the Boston Music Awards last night and took home the Boston Music Award for “Best New Artist of the Year”. I don’t know if you’ve caught them live but they play at the Rhumbline frequently, when they’re not travelling up and down the east coast. In fact, the Rhumbline holds a special place in their heart…they love the crowd there. Their CD “Dust Windows” topped the Amazon charts for quite some time as well. Check them out!
Also, Jen D’Angora of Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents won “Best Female Vocalist of the Year.” Tony Goddess of Gloucester is a guitarist with the band and his wife Sam Goddess is a back-up vocalist.
The awards were held at the Liberty Hotel in Boston and it was a sold-out event.
All around, a good night for recognizing some home-grown talent.
Thanks.
Gregg Z.
Kingsley Flood
Jenny D & The Deelinquents

A Tribute to John Lennon with special guest Dan King 8:00 pm
From Fly Amero,
Thirty years ago to the day…
On Monday, December 8, 1980, John Lennon was fatally shot four times in front of the Dakota Building, NYC, by Mark David Chapman after a mixing session with Yoko Ono at Record Plant Studio. As with the Kennedy assassination, most of us remember exactly where we were when we heard the tragic news. Upon the suggestion of bartender Michael Gallagher, Dan and I have put a modest collection of his songs together for the purpose of a special Rhumb Line tribute. Hope you can all be there.
Feel free to bring candles and lighters. Dinner with Fly Amero: 8 – 11pm Host and perform as always
*Each week features a special, invited musical guest *Comfort food dinner specials from Dave Trooper’s kitchen
*Sponsored by Shipyard Ale Food is prepared fresh by “Troop” and is always good!
Fred features special discounted entrees with half-off on a Shipyard every week!
