Back at the Vienna Wolf Trap Hotel

Topic: Back at the Vienna Wolf Trap Hotel

It's good to be back in Vienna. Two dates left on the tour, and we're
all ready to get home on Saturday.

The drive down the New Jersey Turnpike was uneventful, but we did hit
some traffic near DC on our way to the Peking Duck Restaurant in
Alexandria, VA. The food was superb! I also think everyone was happy
to have eaten there yesterday rather than for lunch today; I don't
think anyone would have had the energy to play music tonight! What an
experience.

The weather is moderating, though it's 22 degrees now. I think the
high today will be in the 50s. Enough of the cold.

I'm starting to work up the West Coast tour at the end of the month.
Lots of logistics involved.

The Kate, Old Saybrook, CT, 2/11/18

We played the Kate on a very wet Sunday night. It was our third appearance there and as always, the audience was great and so were the staff.   We played a fairly well-rounded set list, mainly to listeners, as there isn’t much room at the Kate to dance.  It was a good show, and afterwards we sold and signed CDs.  It’s always great to see our fans. I hope it’s not 4 more years until we play there again!

FitzGerald’s American Music Festival, Berwyn, IL

Date: July 2, 2009 11:59 AM Topic: FitzGerald's American Music Festival, Berwyn, IL It's amazing how Fitzgerald can alter his club to accommodate an event with so much entertainment and yet keep the Fitzgerald's feel. The groups that played were amazing, from Bill Kirchen to Marcia Ball, and of course BeauSoleil. Since we had flown in on the day of the first show, July 1, we were a bit tired but played very well inside the club stage. On Thursday, after getting rest, we played the outdoor stage and really kicked it up. Points to note for this trip, and more specifically O'Hare airport: Continental has moved its gates to the United Terminal, in anticipation of the Star Alliance merger later this year. No more Northwest and Delta!

2023 and BeauSoleil

We all made it through COVID, thank God.  We are all looking forward to a new year with great adventures.  We do have two upcoming shows in December: in New Orleans on 12/8, at the Lafitte Greenway and at the Hideaway Dance Hall on 12/11.
