hey all,

We've got some unique shows coming up this week. And a first - The Rhumba
Bums are performing in a natural foods market. I've performed in an auto
dealership many times, but never in a natural foods market. I understand
they have a live band once a year. So, um, if dancers come and are inspired
to perform aerials...would they get busted for...shoplifting?

Carmen was thrilled to record live with blues/boogie legend, 91 year old
Pinetop Perkins earlier this year. The CD was released August 24th, and
Pinetop is now embarking on his "Ladies Man" Tour. Carmen and Steve Lucky,
and SLRB bassist Lukas Vesely will join Pinetop and Muddy Waters' drummer of
20 years Willie Big-Eyes Smith for two of these shows - Mystic Theatre on
11/15, and Crystal Bay Casino North Shore Tahoe on 11/6. These should be a
lot of fun - you never know who will show up and sit-in, and I believe
there'll be room to dance at least at the Mystic Theatre.

groovy,
carmen getit
