Final Maennerchor Show Next Saturday Night
Singer-songwriters Michael Fracasso and John Fullbright will help us wrap up a wonderful seven-year run at the Columbus Maennerchor, 966 South High Street, when they appear Saturday night, July 30.
The doors will open at 7:30 PM, the show will begin at 8 and plenty of tickets are still available by emailing wightman51@aol.com; calling the Zeppelin ticket line (614-565-6130); or just sending a check for $20 per ticket payable to Zeppelin Productions, Inc. c/o Alec Wightman, 65 East State Street, 21st Floor, Columbus, Ohio 43215.
Michael is an old friend--born and raised in the Steubenville area, a graduate of Ohio State and a Zeppelin artiste off and on over the past 17 years. He's been a mainstay of the Austin music scene since 1990, and is touring in support of his new CD, "Saint Monday," which is getting strong reviews. Michael is an excellent songwriter, a strong guitarist and has a voice (for those of you over 50) somewhere between Roy Orbison and Gene Pitney, with a little of the Everlys thrown in.
John is a relative newcomer to the Austin scene--born and raised in Oklahoma, which he still calls home, he's been turning heads (and ears) in Austin for the past year or so. I've heard him compared to everyone from Steve Earle to Leon Russell, but, the truth is, he has a distinctive style all his own. Great songwriter, a voice mature beyond his 20+ years and, I'm told, a captivating stage performer.
We'll keep it short and sweet here, but it would be great to sell a bunch more tickets for this last show at the Maennerchor. If you don't have your tickets for the show, order them up now. If you do, think about dragging along a few more friends. Like I said, plenty of tix still available.
See you on the 30th...!
