March schedule is rocking

Subject: March schedule is rocking

Date: February 22nd 2021

February was a very slow month for me even for the pandemic. I did have only 2 gigs, and both were at Blues Burghers. One was a solo gig, and the other was with my pal Clayton Goldstein who is doing a regular Sunday late afternoon gig there. My next gig isn't until early March.
March it should be noted, is looking much much better. I have 6 gigs listed plus there is a private Zoom gig for Music For All Seasons out of New Jersey.
I got my first dose of the Moderna vaccine on Feb 12. The only side effect I had was a sore arm for about 3 or 4 days. That's it. The second dose will be on March 12 and I had to cancel a gig with Heidi "Heidi Ho" Rosenbaum (Ross 'n' Rose) on that day at the American Legion Hall in Cooper City. Dan Dratch was available to take my place. Thanks Dan, and thanks Heidi for understanding that that 2nd dose of the vaccine may knock me for a loop.
Anyway, here's the March Schedule.
