THANKS FOR SUPPORTING OUR MUSIC THIS PAST WEEKEND

 

Hi Folks,

It’s going to be a big note of gratitude here.  So, if you are not into reading about people being grateful, this one is not for you.

Last Wednesday, Siobhan and I played for the Stewart Family Reunion at Camp Onanda, the Canandaigua Town Park along the west side of Canandaigua Lake.  The setting was beautiful and the evening was too.  As seasoned musicians, we knew the event was not about us; it was about the family, and our job was to enhance the event while the family reunited and told stories.  So we went to work at being unobtrusive, playing our music quietly while they visited.  Throughout the evening we received some nice compliments and an occasional clap or hoot.  As the catching up faded a bit, we drew some family members into our music, and we had them dancing and singing along by the end of the evening, something that quite often happens at affairs like this.  We had a blast!  Big thanks to the Stewart Family and to Lynne Stewart for inviting us to play.

“Live From Linden,” a gathering held on Linden street in Geneva every Friday and Saturday night throughout the summer, was another blast for us!  There was a little chill in the air but it was beautiful.   Again, we assumed our unobtrusive role as musicians and played to those who stopped for dinner and drinks at the participating restaurants along the street.  Again, it was an evening filled with occasional hoots, claps, and compliments from people who stopped by to chat.  Big thanks to our friends who came out to support us.  Big thanks to Dave Linger for inviting us to play.

Saturday night at The Timbercreek Tavern was a totally different scene for us.  Members from “Table #1” and “ Meyer and McGuire’s Drunken Choir” showed up to engage in a sing-along, and oh what a sing-along it was!  It was awesome hearing your voices.  Big thanks to Brenda Clark for conducting the singers during the evening.  Big thanks to all of you who purchased our new Meyer and McGuire T-shirts, which arrived on Friday.  Big thanks to Barbara Cromwell for creating the prototype for the T-shirts, inspiring us to have them made.  Big thanks to Susie for inviting us to play.

Sunday afternoon put us back in our unobtrusive role once again, and it was probably one of the most beautiful settings we have ever played.  We were on a porch overlooking Keuka Lake with its awesome vistas, playing for the ice cream social sponsored by the Arts Center of Yates County.  Folks purchased bowls donated by some of the area’s potters, filled them with some delicious ice cream, and listened to our music.  Again, listeners responded with occasional claps, hoots, and compliments.  They stopped by to chat a little, and we made some new friends.  Big thanks to all who came out to support this neat little fund-raiser.  Big thanks to Casey Kowalski for inviting us to play.

Well, that’s it from Parkside.  Can’t thank you enough for supporting our music.  Truly grateful for every moment we get to play for you.  Norman Lear, an American television screenwriter, film and television producer, best known for his creation of “All in the Family,” just turned 100 on July 27, and he is still working.  In a recent NPR interview, he indicated we move through life from “It’s over.” To “What’s next.”  In between those two points are the moments we live, and he savors them more now than ever.  As I age I feel myself doing the same thing, and I encourage all to do likewise.  Savor those moments and have a great Week!

Love,

Siobhan and Frank
