Oak Ash and Thorn will appear in Seattle aboard schooner Wawona as part of the Sea Music Concert Series.

We'll be there Saturday, August 14th, and would love to catch up with any Mudcats in the neighborhood. We'll even buy the first pint!

See other details at Oak Ash & Thorn, our website.

Cheers,

D

I'd love to come but probably can't make it. I usually work on the weekends....I clicked on the web page and see that Hank Cramer, a wonderful singer, is off to Afghanistan. I think he is Special Forces. mg

Would love to pop over, but a good friend's (60th) birthday party is that night.

yep, knock 'em dead.

Let's all waft good thoughts in Hank's direction.

My church is collecting clothes & blankets for an orphanage there, channeled through the troops. That is something I can happily contribute to.

I'm in the wrong part of the country to come, but I just wanted to say I love your group's name. Makes me think Kipling.

Thanks, Jess. The name was a gift from a friend. Kipling did write a poem called that, but those
three plants have a history which extends farther back in folklore. Why Annie thought it was a
good name for us is lost in the mists of thirty years, but it seems to have stuck. Variously we've
been called Ripped, Smashed & Torn, another friend never fails to call us Toke Stash and Porn,
yet another wag insists on calling us Palm Plumeria and Breadfruit. Hmmmm.

*Refresh* from the other side of Sesame Street, down the alley, by the dumpster, but don't tell my dad, eh?
