Well how about this, with so little activity for the past several months, OPEK comes back in force in June. I like YIV and we'll tear the place up, plus it'll be another good place for those who have been itching to dance along with our tunes.

Gullifty's has reopened!

After been closed for a couple of weeks, Gullifty's reopened last night. Of course, the reason I mention this is that OPEK is playing there Friday night, and I want to convince as many people as possible to attend. So do come by and celebrate with us, won't you?

Braxton's music is like a fine Dali painting... at times intriguing, disturbing and beautiful. The CAPA concert was wonderful! George and I enjoyed it. Thanks Ben for all of your work in bringing him to Pittsburgh.

I hope to see you at the next Opek!
