A note from Wayne...

So far so good...

The summer tour is going great this year. The crowds at Shady Gators have been excellent, and the weather has held for the most part. They installed some new window coverings so I can still perform when it's raining, unless it's really severe. And speaking of weather, I apologize for the cancelled show at Jolly Rogers on July 11th. There were tornadoes close by that day, and since Jolly Rogers is dependant almost entirely on boaters, they closed for the afternoon. I plan to do some more shows there next summer.

Thanks to lots of forwards and radio play in June, my YouTube video, "My Father's Not the President" has gone over 10,000 views.
That's really cool, because for those of you who know my Dad, you know he deserves to be famous!

I look forward to heading back to Put-In-Bay next weekend for another round of Faust & Lewis shows.
Rusty and I have cooked up some new topical songs, including one about Lebron James that Cleveland fans should get a kick out of.

Next weekend, Sunday, July 18th, another of my stories is going to be dramatized in Denver for a theater performance called
"Absolute Horror - Bone-Chilling Tales For A Hot Summer Night." They are doing my story "
Promised Land." one of my creepiest tales.
I won't be able to make it that night of course, but some of my family will probably attend.
There is also a special feature where audience members can get one of their stories performed.

The info appears below in the schedule.

I hope to see you down the road during my busy summer of gigs.
If you prefer, you can view a calendar version of my schedule by clicking here.
As you can see, there are not many days off for me until after Labor Day. But as I said above, so far so good!

God bless and I'll see you down the road!

One Night Stand Theater presents

Absolute Horror: Bone-Chilling Tales for a Hot Summer Night

Gather 'round the campfire for an evening of warm-weather stories of terror, fright, black humor, and the just plain weird. (Not appropriate for younger children.)

Sunday, July 18, 7:00 p.m., The Vintage Theater, 2119 E. 17th Ave. (between Vine and Gaylord) in Denver. Admission: $5.00; Info and Reservations: 720-940-9766 or tickets@onenightstandtheater.org.

As part of the July 18 One Night Stand Theater presentation, "Absolute Horror: Bone-Chilling Tales for a Warm Summer Night," we're having an unusual audience contest. Here's how it works: send me a short paragraph about the "scariest thing that ever happened" to you or "my favorite summertime memory." We'll choose two of the submissions and DRAMATIZE them - turn each into a short play or narrated story - and then the cast will perform them as part of our "Absolute Horror" evening!

Send your scary or summertime memory to jimoleary65@aol.com by Thursday, July 15. We'll let you know shortly thereafter if yours has been chosen. You need not attend the performance to win?but why would you stay at home?

I look forward to your stories!

The Bucksnort Saloon
Sphinx Park, Colorado

Wayne returns do another round of shows at the Bucksnort in 2010. The Bucksnort is quite a place, and as close to a 'home' club as Wayne can get. It's the kind of place that Coloradans love to take out-of-town visitors, because there's no place quite like it anywhere else.
To get there, take 285 from Denver into the mountains.
About 5 miles past Conifer, take a left at Shafer's Crossing and experience the 7-mile, winding road to the Bucksnort.
As Wayne's song says,
"When you're sure you're lost you're almost there to the Bucksnort Saloon!"

Friday - Saturday, November 12th and 13th, 2009   9 PM

Clyde's Place
6337 Paradise Trail - Carp Lake, Michigan
231-537-2336

Wayne plays here every year in November for the start of hunting season. It's a rustic little place in a beautiful part of the country, about 5 miles south of Mackinaw City in northern Michigan. This is the place that inspired Wayne's song, "Jerry Williams Said." It's become a tradition for Wayne to head way up north for this weekend, and it always seems to kick off the Christmas season for him, with Lake Michigan in the distance, and a nip in the air, sometimes even snow.
It's a really nice little getaway if you can make it!

 This will be Wayne's 3rd winter at The Lodgepole and it's a REALLY nice room - good acoustics, comfortable surroundings, and it's right at the base of the mountain.

It's right next to Beaver Run, at the Base of Peak 9, so people staying there can actually walk over.
