WAKE UP CALL's CD Cover, by JON BARONI

So, what's up? Lot's of cool stuff lately, so let's get started....First did ya see JON BARONI's video called 'WAKE UP CALLS'? STEPHEN K. HICKS/drums, our neighbor and owner of HOBBY STREET STUDIOS has some awesome talent creating cool videos. Yep, he knows his way 'round a camera and well, just look...I'll post it below. OK? To buy 'WAKE UP CALLS [C] By JON BARONI on CDBABY...GO HERE. For my report on this video, go HERE.
O.K....JON BARONI/keys/harp/vocals and STEPHEN K. HICKS/drums, along with XXXXX-XXX/guitar/vocals [X'd out per request T. Jan] and, of course, my STEVE BARTLETT ON BASS are members of the band just called HOBBY STREET. Their rehearsal is tonight. st_robert/sound engineer/guitar and SCOTT ERCOLIANI/drums visited this group last week. It's always fun to have some cool company, I say. 
Then, Steve has been talking to long time music buddy again this week...MIKE KARNES/guitar/bass. They're getting together on Sunday, next week for a jam, each bringing a new challening tune to teach each other...and the awesome SUNNY LOUDIN/vocals has talked to Mike about joining these two at their jam next time...well sure Sunny. Bring a tune too. OK? ....it'll be great. My report is HERE.
Last week on Wednesday, Jon, Stephen and my Steve of HOBBY STREET joined SEAN BARDEN/guitar, the owner of THE HIDDEN RIVER INN in Rainier for some Open Mic fun, XXXXXX-XXXX/guitar/vocals [X'd out per request T. Jan] of HOBBY STREET could not make it last Wednesday, Steve will see him tonight at rehearsal. My Steve had a great time at HIDDEN RIVER and plans to be there again tomorrow night for their Open Mic.
AND, last but NOT least, on last Friday night GEOFFREY CASTLE/violin/vocals, a amazing 6 string, electric violinist performed at the HIDDEN RIVER INN in Rainier. My hubby heard about it on last Wednesday's Open Mic, and sure wanted to see this guy. WOW! was he glad he went to that show...He just keeps talking about Mr. Castle and his performance, every day he's brought up something wonderful about GEOFFREY CASTLE musical talent...so, GEOFFREY CASTLE is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED in my Steve's book. Go hear him if you get a chance, AND there's lots of videos on YOUTUBE, get a preview now, why wait?...you'll love it. My report is HERE.
Oh yes...some important news about our baby sheep..'Lola' is now 'Larry'. Yes, I guess, Steve was very tired last week after 'Lola', Lala and Layla were born. Here's my report about these BBAAD BLACK 'Gals' crashing the HOBBY STREET rehearsal with song by JON BARONI and video by STEPHEN K. HICKS....click HERE.
That's it for the past week or two. Trajen 'Jan'.
