Bob (and friends) at the Bakery

          Thursday, 7:15 I'm at my usual post here at the bakery, in the big room by the door so that I can open the door when people are trying to leave - while carrying an armful of pastries, bread and coffee...can't be done, that's why I sit here.  Sometimes I tell folks that Evergrain pays me to perform that service for their customers.  Those who know me sometimes laugh, sometimes smile politely, sometimes give me that look you might give a senile uncle that you still think of kindly.
          But once a month I get to come here with "the band" and play music...First Saturdays...this Saturday, February 2nd...7 PM.  That's the Pam Ortiz Band, all original music with Ford Schumann on guitar, Nevin Dawson on Viola/violin, and newest member, Philip Dutton on piano.  Pam's music and writing blends blues, folk,and jazz with well crafted lyrics and imagery.  We'll be a quartette on Saturday - Nevin is in Punta Arenas, South America.
          Join us if you can, good folks, good coffee, bread, pastries, music and conversation.  Here's a link to the band web page if you want to get a taste of the music www.pamortizmusic.com
