Solo guitar steady gig notice from Larry Burkhart:
Hi all,
Thought I would connect with everyone past and present that hopefully still have these e mail
addresses. I gave up on performance mailing lists a while ago due to delivery failures, travel distances,
etc. Here's something worth an official announcement. I just started playing solo guitar at Cafe Vinoteca 3535 Fair Oaks Blvd. Watt Ave. and Fair Oaks Blvd. (behind the Arco station). It went well
and the owners are great people so I'm really into mutual support. I'll be there Thursdays 6:30 to 9+
for at least a month. Come by. The grapes and tomatoes have already been squashed! L
