Stone Caravan News

January 28, 2010

Hey folks, last-minute reminder that we have three CD release shows for "Down Here By The River" tomorrow and Saturday (January 29th and January 30th) at The Turning Point in Piermont, NY. This is our "home turf" and where we recorded "One More Song Live". If you haven't been there yet, this weekend would be a good time to change that! They now have a good Mexican restaurant upstairs. Can someone say margaritas?

We have three great opening artists at this weekend's shows:

January 29 at 9pm - Over The Line - cool acoustic duo coming in from the other side of the mighty Hudson River.

January 30 at 7:30pm - Tyrone Shoelaces - this is our old friend Chuck Chesler's solo music project. Chuck will be sitting in on piano, organ and accordion with Stone Caravan on all three shows as he played on many tracks from "Down Here By The River".

January 30 at 10:00pm - Tim O'Donohue - one of Rockland County's cornerstones in the acoustic music scene who has a great CD out, "A Little Bit Of Alright".

Please go to www.turningpointcafe.com to reserve seats or call 845-359-1089 to get your tickets. It will be a great weekend.

I had a blast meeting lots of new folks up at The Town Crier in Pawling and The Linda in Albany last weekend as I supported my dear friend Willie Nile for a few shows. The crowds, venues, presenters and Willie were all great! :-)

More info on shows in Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Toronto, Warwick, Lakewood, Asbury Park, Milwaukee, Ringwood, Europe in May and other stuff to follow in next month's emailer...

Thanks, as always, to everyone who has picked up a copy of "Down Here By The River". Also thanks to lots of you who emailed me your "reviews" of the CD, fun to read! THANKS!

All the best,
Joe D

PS - The radio shows with Dave Marsh and Joey Reynolds went great and I got to meet the Amazing Kreskin on Joey's show. Now that was cool!

Singing "The River" in front of Marsh was a little nerve wrecking as he must have seen Bruce sing that song a thousand times!

We are rescheduling our appearance on Rich Russo's "Anything Anything" radio show on 101.9 and will let you know soon about that...

For those of you who tuned in on January 17th to hear me on Bruce Brunch on The Hawk 105.7FM, my apologies for not being there. Light of Day kicked my butt his year and I slept right through my interview/on air time. There's always a first for everything!
