That's What I Think 03-18-2013

Greetings again my friends from my "Doing the Happy Dance cause Spring is here" little corner of the world. By the time you read this Spring 2013 will finally be upon us and now if we could get some spring type temperatures on a consistent basis then we'll have the total experience. I trust we all "behaved ourselves" this past St Patty's Day weekend? Somehow not sure how many yes answers I would get to that question, so let's all "pretend" we were all home early watching the Red Green Show on PBS. The plate is full this week so belly up, here we go.

I have got to tell you about the fine folks in Roundhead at The Longhorn Bar & Grill. If you like to eat, and come on who doesn't check this out. They have Broasted Chicken, Pizza, Wings( which are .45 5-9 on Monday), a great A.U.C.E fish special for only $5.99 on Friday from 12-9 AND Steak for $10.99 also 12-9!!!! WOW! WOW! Hungry yet? If you are, now you know where to go, right?

As promised here is your weekly update about one huge party planned for April 20th. Its The Rockin 4 Ronnie Daley Benefit being held at Louie's Nite Club on N Main Street. Its to help out with Ronnie's medical expenses as a result of some very serious medical issues that forced his retirement.

Hey if you have not visited Lima's one stop shop for all musicians and music lovers you need to get yourself down to W Robb Ave and visit GILBERT'S Music and GROAMYS CD'S & TAPES. Its like a music Paradise. Trust me on this.If its strings,pics, a new axe, some repairs, you name it, GILBERTS MUSIC has it. If you used to play it to death back in the 70's on record and you just have to hear it one more time, the go see the man who " Is only here to help" GROAMY. I can't promise he can get it for you again on record but you dont know if you don't ask, right? Locally owned, operated and there to serve US!!! GO TODAY!

That's it for now. We can all support the local scene just go to something somewhere. At least that's what I think.

As always
If ya dig it do it
If ya really dig it
Do it twice
