ACOUSTIC JAM #98 AT CHICAGO'S


Hi...yeah I'm still here....I somehow got saturated and overwhelmed by the quality of the musicians in my previous posts...check out the videos......

See....that's how self-promotion works....and I'll now introduce you to the lady in the picture...................................

Acoustic Jam #98 was very special.The lady pictured is Ms. Tamara Morahan, a local vocalist/percussionist/performance artist who took the stage this night after my own A+ set(see above), and delivered a brave and gutsy performance for the stunned,but appreciative audience of about 35......yes...she's about 35.....I was fascinated that the audience,who usually talks and laughs loud during my set, gave her such reverence and listened intently to her whole presentation....for her first time ever on stage,Tamara delivered an exemplary performance and reminded all of us what it would be like if our dream of singing and dancing on stage came true.You're an inspiration to little girls all over Oshawa.....use the guitar player next time and pound some more bluegrass or something!
It was an awesome evening.This night also included an incredible set wth Alison and Nate(...yes,Alison...he DOES own a record company) and Lindsay and Luke,as well as Pete Merilovich and my co-host,Mr.Don Niblett and others....
Tamara, by the way is also an accomplished videographer and is known at Youtube,Durhamrock and other fine establishments as "AnteRockstar" and her MTV approach to the local scene is refreshing and informative.....(shit....I'm starting to sound like McGuirk.....I better end this).

Here's a link to anterockstar.........(Auntie Rockstar...I love it)
