Hi gang!

Mike’s Cleveland Music Club Jam Night lost one of their regular jam family last week with the passing of drummer, Tom King. He was a regular jam night attendee back in their Doc and Louie’s days and followed them when they moved back to Bullfrog’s. He was almost always the first one there and one of the last to leave. You could tell he loved music, and (like Mike) Sonor drums. Condolences to Tom’s family from all of us at Shady Drive.

Shady Drive shows at Aces Grille and Fairview Tavern were a great time! Thanks to Sandy, Ken, Rita, Matt, Gerald and everyone else who came out this past weekend despite the weather!
