MARCH 17, 2011
GRINTER BARN JAMBOREE


We had a great crowd at the Grinter Barn last night. Many new faces as well as the regulars were in to watch and listen to the band. New guests are always welcome and we were so glad to see them last night. The dancers seemed to enjoy themselves, too.

There was a lot of green in honor of St. Patrick's day. The ladies of Grinter Place Friends prepared a delicious dinner of Corn & Beef & Irish potatoes and told us to pretend it was Corned Beef & Cabbage.

The band performed several Irish songs especially during the first half of the show. The entire band was present including Dave "Willie" Purcell ; they all did a fine job and those fans present had a great time.

I want to remind all of you to remember the special "50's Rock & Roll" show next month on April 21. Come dressed as you would have dressed in the 50's including poodle skirts, petticoats. For the men, duck tails, tee shirts and plenty of Brylcreem, if you can still buy it. The ladies will serve Sloppy Jo's, Chips and Root Beer floats. It promises to be an unforgettable evening. Only $8.00 for the dinner and show with proceeds going to the "Friends of Grinter Place".

Also, I have been informed that our special guest at the BK Lounge next Tuesday will be the outstanding talented regular from Annie's Country Jubilee will be Dobro player Fred Uzell. It is always a pleasure to have him join us. All of you please come out and see a good show Tuesday beginning at 6:30 PM.
