Hello All,

I am visiting the lovely Bekkah Jean in Worcester this coming week end. She lives on Hell's Highway between Worcester and Natick Mass. As long as I'm visiting the area is there anything doing Saturday nite? Bekkah is a lovely and attentive daughter but utter clueless when it comes to me and musicical entertainment. Her Mom is easy, a microwave, some popcorn and QVC. Me, I need more than that after a five hour drive. Anything doing? Please? Anywhere?

Don

West African Music Featuring Balla Tounkara World Music Event Date: Feb 17 01, Saturday Event Time: 08:00 PM Wesley Wirth bass, Balla Tounkara kora, Muhammed Joh Cammara African percussion. This is the real thing. If you haven't seen a Kora here it is played by one of the masters. When I saw them play in Cambridge a few monts ago I couldn't hold still. Don't bother to wear socks as they'll just get knocked off.

Admission: Day of Show $12.00 Adv $ 10.00

Students /Seniors $1.00 off

This is all I could find, Don. (Takes place in the Natick Arts Center) It is over a year since I lived in Wusstah so I am a little out of touch.. If you can log on the the website for the Worcester Phoenix, you might find something there. Sorry I can't be of more help.

If you're willing to drive a half-hour or 45 minutes from Worcester on I-495 (toward Cape Cod) Dave Mallett is at the Rose Garden Coffeehouse in downtown Mansfield (Orthodox Congregational Church) 8 p.m. Saturday, $10.
About the same distance on Route 146 (toward Providence) Skip Healy, a wonderful Irish flute player, has a CD release party at 8 p.m. at the Blackstone River Theater on Broad Street, Cumberland, R.I. Also $10.

Long time no write, but this is Vixen of yore. Tim's playing bluegrass with Shady Creek and the Blackstone Valley Bluegrass Band in Killingly CT on Saturday night at 7:30 PM at the Killingly grange hall, so if you feel like goin' about 45 min to an hour south of Worcester, c'mon down and hang out with a coupla mudcats. Take I-395 South to the Route 101 exit (don't know the exit number). At the end of the ramp, go left. Stay on 101 through the shopping extravaganzas. Grange hall is along there after the top of the hill. I'll make sure we both wear our Mudcat pins from Bill and Allan's excellent adventure. Tim will be playing mandolin!

Hope to see you there!
