Rock Notes
- October 2024
- Hello out there.
- Hello world from the the left coast of America, It's been a while since I have posted any music notes... so with cup of coffee in hand, I am ready to dish the dirt... Well I don't really have any dirt, but it seems that what people need to do to get the click through these day. What a world!
- Anyway I digress … I am listening to George Harrison "If you don't know where your going any road will take you there". I love George, he is a source of calm and humor in a world where there is a shortage of both… what would we do without music?
- Speaking of music, it's October, Tom Petty's birthday month. So, as we have been doing for the past few years since his death, we will be playing a gig in his honor. This year it's at The Elephant In The Room in Healdsburg on Sunday the 20th, whivh is Tom’s birthday. We are playing along with our friends the THUGZ . The THUGZ will be going on first at 6:00, and The Sorentinos will be going on around 7:30. This is the only gig that The Sorentinos play a lot of covers, so if you want to see us do a bunch of Tom Petty songs in a row, this is your opportunity. We will of course be doing our own songs mixed in. See if you can tell the difference! I dug into the Petty catalog and we have been trying to learn some new ones. There are so many great songs, it's hard to pick. And in my old age, it's even harder to remember! But we will give it our best shot.
- I have also booked our Christmas show, which will be at The Redwood Cafe in Cotati on Sunday December 8th 6:00-8:30. We had a great show there last year, so come on out and have a rock and roll Christmas!
- I think that will it for 2024. So come out and have some fun while sun does shine. It's later than you think...
- With that thought in mind, I am sure everyone out there in the baby boomer demographic has friends and family who have health issues, like most of us do these days. I would just like to mention that my buddy Harry Gale has had a major stroke and we are all pulling for him to recover. Harry and I have made 10 albums together and go back to the 80's when his band The Tumblers and my band The Chills played the same joints. Anyway please send some good thoughts his way.
- Well that’s it for now... dig you all later!
