Concert by Yve Evans Boise

AhHa, I'm Back!        
Sorry for not keeping up with y/all that's southern slang for y'all ,but about 3 months ago my personal life was thrown into a cement mixer of which I am finally emerging.  No sense of sharing these thoughts now. Will explain at a later date.
No, it was not about our granddaughter Lula -still waiting for results in that area.
For you local folks -- Boise etc., I have been attending the presentations at the Cathedral of the Rockies on Sunday mornings.  It starts at 10a.m., lasts for an hour , and features some very good local musicians/singers. It is a very pleasant and relaxing experience.
  This morning they featured the celebrated vocalist/pianist Yve Evans----WOW!  She will perform tonight at the Egyptian Theater at 7p.m. to benefit '' Imagine No Malaria'' cause and Local Food Pantries. (please bring a non-perishable food item)  tickets are $15.00  It's going to be a great evening and you are going to love this fabulous gal.
Keep tellin' your cruisin' guys and dolls about Main sts. USA

Hey fun seekers-sorry I missed you last week, but I was out prowling.  My niece Kim, dragged me out to see a movie at the Flicks Theatres- an independent movie theatre here in Boise.  The movie was about "The Wrecking Crew"- a group of excellent musicians who played on a LOT of records in the late fifties through the sixties, and into the seventies.  There were about 20-25 of them, who, behind the scenes, recorded some of the sound tracks of just about any group [The Byrds, Beach Boys,The Monkees, Sonny and Cher,ect,ect,ect.] In other words, a lot of groups and single artists.                                 If you would like to know more about these unsung heroes of rock music,get the book entitled "The Wrecking Crew" Copyright 2012 by author Kent Hartman. It is a terrific book and the whole story is fascinating!                                                                                                                                                 "see" you next week gang.  Hope all is well and be safe when you are "cruisin".                                               My Best Charlie
