The unofficial (and impromptu) Green Plow Art Fest

We weren't sure what to do when our musicians for last Friday had to cancel, so we wnded up throwing open our doors to any and all musicians to meet at Green Plow to, "...mingle with other local artists and make beautiful music together." Well we had at least 2o people show up, and the first ever Green Plow Open Jam was awesome! Thank you to everyone who came to play. We have had good feedback and we will plan on doing it again.

Then on Saturday night we hosted an evening of drama, presented by Redmond's own Children's Theater Company. They treated us to an evening of sketches, scenes, monologues, and reader's theater.

And finally, this weekend was Walk The ArtBeat on Friday night. Our walls are filled with art from local students, and our halls were filled with music by Jacob Looper and Cassia Dawn, along with some help from a couple of friends.

Join us over the next few weeks for music from Burn Pattern, CinderBlue, Eric Staples, and the Prairie Rockets. See ya there!

Just another Friday night?

Okay, so last Friday I got to Green Plow around 6:45, a bit later than I wanted. As I drove down the alley I saw Jason Jackson, one half of our evening's duo, packing some equipment into the shop. Or at least it was a guy with a hat that in the dark looked a little like one that Jason wears, even if the guy was maybe a little shorter and stockier than Jason.

When I got inside I realized, of course, that it wasn't Jason. "Strange, I thought Robin and Jason only played as a duo." Then I realized that there was only one musician. It turns out that Robin and Jason had a family emergency and were unable to perform that evening, but they made numerous phone calls and were finally able to find someone to take their place. That was Leif James, the guy with the hat. Among the phone calls they made were one or two to Mandy, which we didn't get because the phone was in the car. I guess you just never know quite what to expect. This week I expect to hear Allan Byer on Friday night, and I am really looking forward to it, but you just never know.
