A Great Weekend

Described by the folks from Jack.

- October 14 (tomorrow!) at The Starlite Lounge, 362 Freeport Road in
Blawnox. Jack will be appearing with fellow Pittsburgh musicians
Paul Tabachneck and Gregg Orsag. The show starts around 9pm, Jack
will go on around 11pm. This is part of the Three Penny Opry Series,
organized by Robert Wagner. No cover, although they're usually pretty
aggressive about passing the tip jar. Non-smoking show.

That takes care of your Friday evening entertainment. If you're looking
to hear good live music on Saturday, you have a multitude of choices:

- The Three Penny Opry happens on Saturdays too! This one is features
a whole bunch of great local songwriters, check it out: Scott Milner,
Rick Kobertz, John Hayes, Gail Novak and Jeremy Fisher, and Eve Goodman.
The show starts around 8pm.

- Tommy Emmanuel appears as part of the Calliope Concert Series at the
Carnegie Lecture Hall. According to Chet Atkins Tommy Emmanuel is,
"Probably the greatest guitar player in the world." How can you pass
that up? The show starts at 8pm.

- As if you need another choice, Bonnie Raitt is playing the Benedum
Center with Maia Sharp.

You missed a fantastic show if you didn't go see Maia and Bonnie. Ahhhh well, what to do, eh? We get some great shows here in the 'Burgh, don't we? Thank God for WYEP programming. Let me know if there are any "must see's" coming to Pittsburgh. I'm on it. Happiest of New Years to you!
