French Kiss / Flying Start presents:
Today’s Lost Music Saloon falls on Memorial Day, so I’ll be doing a show dedicated to soldiers, and their families and loved ones back home. Songs about war, peace, patriotism and protest. Songs about the men and women who laid down their lives, and those who survived but with mental, physical and emotional scars.
So take some time to kick back from the picnic table, put down the bbq & beer, and listen to some good, often thought-provoking, music this evening. And remember those who served.
