First up... tomorrow, Friday, December 7th Seattle's in luck....Steve BARTLETT ON BASS with Recording Artist, the great MICHAEL O'NEILL will be headed up to THE BLUE MOON in the 'U' District for an awesome gig beginning at 9:30 pm. Michael called Steve last week, and BARTLETT ON BASS is stoked about being back with O'Neill and 'bout being in his old stomping grounds of Seattle ...There'll be other really fine musicians joining Bartlett and singer/song writer O'Neill in O'NEILL's band with that fantastic Americana-Country sound that's so popular now. Take a listen HERE from Michael O'Neil's Reverbnation site. Now, BARTLETT's been rehearsing all of these songs tonight, and I love them.  Remember, You'll be hearing them at THE BLUE MOON at 9:30 tomorrow.
Next, MIKE KARNES and BARTLETT, added some dynamite percussions to their music team last week, when they met at RHYTHM FIRE SCHOOL OF MUSIC in Olympia. This kid's an 'Atomic Clock', is what I've heard both Mike and Steve say. They have have described ANDRE to me, with their all eyes wide, lite up and shining ...sounds powerful and amazing to me.  So, I Can't wait to hear more....O.K. Guys stop drooling, will ya?
Now there's NIKKO...that's NIKKO PISCIOTTI, or' Amazing Music' as I have chosen to call him. He's from the University of Washington, has a  wonderful voice and sound to his original songs....and,when I called SEAN BARDEN, owner of HIDDEN RIVER about going to PISCIOTTI's EP Release on the 14th of December. Sean stated this gig is already STANDING ROOM ONLY...that's two weeks out, folks...WOW. Don't wanna miss this. 
My Steve and the rest of the guys from WALTER's BIRTHDAY, will be performing with talented NIKKO for his EP Release.  That's TOD LEMKUHL/guitar, SCOTT ERCOLIANI/drums, JON BARONI/keys/harp and, of course, Steve BARTLETT ON BASS. This gig wil be so much fun. There's a $10.00 cover at the door...but, it's well worth it...AND, only a $5.00 cover before the 14th. Check Nikko out on YOUTUBE, he's all over the internet. Then, you'll know what I'm talking about...O.K?
Oh... the BIG news for today...Thursday, December 6th, 2012...It's Steve and my 8th wedding anniversary....BUT, We've been together since 1996. Yeah.
