Hey everybody,
Well, we are now into Stopover Countdown time. My favorite musical event may be only one week away, but there are plenty of things worth checking out this weekend. Surprisingly, there are many early shows that will be worth checking out. Friday brings us City Hotel and Matt Eckstine playing early shows. And Saturday brings a rare free show from the Fabulous Equinox Orchestra, along with plenty of other daytime music. There are also several good shows both evenings too, of course. Then the week slides right into Wednesday, with the Stopover kick-off show at Graveface. Looking forward to seeing many of you soon.
