This won't be a long letter. I just want to tell you that we're playing at Dan Electro's tonight.

 

I'm very excited about the line-up!

 

Teri Greene will join Roger, Leesa and I on guitar, and Ian Varley (from DROP TRIO) will be there to play keyboards! It should be a musical thriller, so we're bringing the recorders!

 

We hope Chaz has a great time at his high-school reunion in New York, and we're thrilled he decided to go.

 

We are so pleased that Bob & Mel Bell have opened Dan Electro's for longer hours (including happy-hour acoustic shows) and more nights per week!

 

We put the band together at Dan Electro's and are always at home on that stage, but we'll miss Dr. Zoomack! If you are really missing Dr. Zoomack, too, you can visit him at his new OLE MOULTON BANK, in Moulton, Texas, where he and Harvana will host MARK ZEUS and the Thunderboltz tonight!

 

But - for us , it's...

 

GUY SCHWARTZ & THE NEW JACK HIPPIES

at

Dan Electro's Guitar Bar

Tonight, Friday, October 8th

 

That's all I have time for today - gotta get ready for the gig. We'll be showing some of the upcoming episodes for Hippies.TV out on the patio tonight! If you don't yet know about Hippies.TV, you should know that Houston Media-Source has given us a weekly time slot to air our series on Friday nights at 10pm, beginning November 5th. I ran the schedule for 2004 programs in the last newsletter, but many of you have asked about resending it (I know that not everyone reads all of this, and some don't open it at all - that's OK, we're here if you need us! <g>), so here it is! Those who have already written the Hippies.TV schedule in their daytimers can skip to the WEEKEND MUSIC CALENDAR...

 

See you where the live music is!
