It’s you who make it happen for us, and you came through once again for us at Rio Tomatlan this past weekend! Can’t thank you enough!
On Saturday, Siobhan and I had a blast playing our dinner show in the bar. In addition to chatting with friends both old and new, we engaged in some great bantering with the servers and bartenders by playing some of their favorite songs and giving them well-deserved shout-outs, something we love to do. At Rio, it’s always a team effort, and the staff members always make it fun for us.
On Sunday, the fun continued when we hosted our concert series in Quiote (the second floor of Rio Tomatlan). The Michael Yacci Trio, our feature for the afternoon, knocked it right out of the ball park, as they always do. In addition to playing some great songs from his previous albums, Songwriter, Mike Yacci, introduced us to some excellent new material from his newly released CD, POLARITY. Mike’s songs, a fusion of rock, pop, blues, and jazz, were greatly enhanced by the excellent musicianship of Mike (keyboard and lead vocals), Bryan Maslin (percussion and harmony), and Paul Yacci (bass, Saxophone, and harmony). The arrangements were outstanding, and the delivery was exquisite. In the second set, Mike invited Eric Alden to join the band for a couple of blues tunes, and Eric brought the house down with some wailing sounds from his harmonica. This band always has fun when they play, and the audience absorbs the vibe the band generates. By the overwhelming enthusiastic response from the audience this Sunday, it was evident the band connected once again.
A big thanks to Mike, Bryan, and Paul for a phenomenal show! A big thanks to Raf, Chris, Erin, Teresa, Brittany, Julie, Amy, Shannon, JT, Trevor, Sadie, and the rest of the staff at Rio for all the help they gave us this weekend! Finally, a big thanks to all who came to our show on Saturday and to the concert we hosted on Sunday! We really appreciated your support
Still reading? If so, have a great week and thanks for being in our lives!!
