The Month of May
Program highlights in May include the annual Acoustic Storm Mother's Day show, as we'll roll out some "maternal" acoustic-rock with Pink Floyd's "Mother," plus music from Dylan & The Band, Mott the Hoople and a couple of tunes from The Beatles' "White Album."
On a personal note, the 5/9-5/10 Acoustic Storm is dedicated to the memory of my mother, Lynne T. Parets. Her birthday (May 11th) often fell on Mother's Day. A lot of my musical inspiration comes from Mom and her side of the family. My grandmother was an accomplished concert pianist and violinist, while Papa was a gifted opera singer.
Here's a look at May's scheduled artists in the Eye of The Storm...
5/2-3: STEVE MILLER
5/9-10: JEFFERSON AIRPLANE/STARSHIP Music Family
5/16-17: ROLLING STONES
5/23-24: CROSBY STILLS & NASH
5/30-31: FLEETWOOD MAC
