Kim Archer Band at the Swiss

I don't usually hang out in taverns and pubs,
but if they've got great pub grub
and fabulous entertainment,
I'm there

especially when I'm meeting up with
Gregg & Adrienne, Lisa, Noreen, Paul & Melinda
to hear The Kim Archer Band.

Kim Archer - guitar and vocals.
This girl has pipes!

David McKibbin - lead guitar.

Jerome Gates on bass guitar

and


Chris Tussing on drums.

The Swiss in Tacoma
was rockin' last night.

I shot some video, too,
but can't upload it because my hard drive's full,
so this You-Tube will have to do for now.



It's not quite the same sound,
because Jerome's not there
and I can't tell who's on drums.

And ... I always love the bass players. Always. Every time. Yep.

Nice times. Bravo!

Oh. That looks wonderful. While I was in SF, I was lucky enough to go to Biscuits and Blues to see LaVay Smith and the Red Hot Skillet Lickers. Amazing, I tell you! Today is my first day home after two and a half weeks of no blog visiting and very little blog posting. I'm suffering major withdrawals, I assure you. It's good to "see" you again.

Haiku My Heart: Basho for Bonnie

Image
Bonnie of Original Art Studio recently bashed what she refers to as pseudo-haiku , saying she refuses to leave comments on blogs that post them. She says, "A haiku true to its original form  should contain  a seasonal reference, not be subjective,  and contain a line that juxtaposes in clear  contrast to the other two. " `  She goes on, "Rarely do blog-posted haiku  even meet one of the criteria, let alone all three." So this week, I'm posting a haiku  from one of the masters. Does this haiku measure up?  "A Fairy Moon and a Lonely Shore" - Matsumoto Print # 39, Matsumoto Do, Ltd.

Haiku My Heart: May the Fourth Be With You

Haiku My Heart i invite you to imagine living in peace one day at a time I have to admit that I'm finding it hard to celebrate the birthday of my country having declared its independence from Mother England, when the country was founded on institutionalized slavery, the idea that white men were created equal but but black men were less than and women weren't even considered. We tend to glorify the "all men are created equal" phrase without looking at the reality. We can do better. We must.
