[dcab-l] Rattlesnake Hill at Cactus Flats this Sunday, November 19th

Music Lovers:

 

Come out and join Ed Schaeffer and Rattlesnake Hill for an evening (5:00 PM to 8:00

PM) of live bluegrass at Cactus Flats, just north of Fredrick, Md.  This is a family

oriented bar with fun loving country folks, and friendly bikers.  Dance floor is available!

The lineup:

 

Ed Schaeffer - Guitar & Vocals
Keith Arneson – Banjo
& Vocals
Barb Diederich – Bass
& Vocals

Lou Janesko – Fiddle

 

We have a special guest on bass, with Tom Grey sitting in for Barb on selections from the

Country Gentlemen and Seldom Scene, two DC area bands, each with whom he was

inducted into the Bluegrass Hall of Fame.  Two great bassists on one bill!

 

Another stellar bandmate, banjoist Keith Arneson, is a 24 year veteran of the Navy Band

“Country Current”, also stationed out of Washington, DC.  You won’t want to miss his

banjo pickin’ or his personality.

 

Come out and hear some great bluegrass by Rattlesnake Hill!

[dcab-l] Sterling/Vienna Jam - Sunday, Nov 12, 5:00 PM - WINTER MONTHS at Neighbors Restaurant

Sterling/Vienna Jam - Sunday, Nov 12, 5:00 PM - WINTER MONTHS at Neighbors Restaurant 

Like last year, the Sterling Golf Club Acoustic Music Jam is moving to
Neighbors Restaurant and Pub in Vienna VA for the Winter months, with
a 5 PM start time.

We had very good turnouts at this location last year. Thanks to all
for dropping in.

Neighbors Restaurant and Pub, serving up delicious food and high-class music

Sunday, Nov 12, 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM
262 Cedar Ln, Vienna, VA 22180

This tends to be an informal, open-format acoustic roots-style jam,
which includes bluegrass, country, folk, folk-rock, blues, jazz
standards, originals, and whatever else needs to be heard. That's what
makes it fun. All instruments welcome.

We'll go back to Sterling Golf Club in the Spring.

I hope you can make it.  PASS THIS ALONG, please...

Thanks!
