WE had a great couple of weeks...Now what?

We have had quite a busy first two weeks of 2009. We are taking a deserved weekend off and then we will be at Carlo & Johnny Jan 31st. So mark your calendars. More info to follow.

Two weeks ago we played at Jim & Jack's and had a great time. On Saturday night we helped celebrate Karen's birthday with her. She is one of our many very loyal fans and we couldn't pass up the opportunity to put her in the spot light. She is such a great sport. So we brought her center stage and we sang acappello "Little Bitty Pretty One".  

 

Also Saturday night we had a very welcomed guest, an old friend and past bass player with BSI, Bob Wilson. He called and told us he was coming down with some friends. It did'nt take much prodding to get him on stage to sing a few songs. He hasn't sung since the 4th of July when he sat in with us at Sharonville when Ted was recovering from throat surgery. Boy is Bob in good voice. He sounded great.

I would like to thank Carol Shilling for these photo's. You did good Carol.

 

Here is more fun news for everyone. I have received so many inquires about when BlueStone Ivory will play somewhere in Northern Kentucky. Well here is your chance.

We will be at Shimmers Ballroom on Valentines Day. Saturday February 14, 2009.

Shimmers used to be Barret's several years ago. Then it became Terry's Sports bar.

Now Sandi and Gene Couch are the owners and have really made some great changes. We are very pleased to be able to work out a deal to provide this wonderful ballroom for a Valentines Dance just for YOU.

We will be there with Mr JD Hughes of WGRR and WARM 98 to provide non-stop music from 8:00PM till Midnight.

For this one engagement we are able to keep the admission at only $8.00 per person. If you want to come early and eat dinner...please feel free to do so. Shimmers Tavern is right next door under the same roof.

If everyone likes this place, and we will know by the attendance, then BlueStone Ivory and JD Hughes will plan special dances here several times throughout the year. We need a great attendance for this to work. Therefor it is up to everyone to let us know how we are doing.

If anyone has any thoughts or ideas to share with us before the big dance please feel free to reply with your comments at the end of this post. We really welcome your thoughts and ideas.

You all know that I'm ready to go anywhere, anytime to hear and watch the band...Northern Kentucky, Southern Indiana, Southern Ohio...it doesn't matter to me where I sit and enjoy your great music. I enjoyed the impromptu serenade for Karen's birthday and the voice of Bob Wilson. Glad I had my trusty camera with me. altho truthfully, it's usually with me.

I was never at Barrett's but I have seen photos in the Album from there. Looks like everybody was having fun.

I'm looking forward to Carlo & Johnny's and hoping to be able to bring a couple of family members with me to help celebrate my birthday. I don't mind getting older when I have such fantastic entertainment to enjoy. See you all on the 31st. Carol
