  Muddy Muds.  

Good stuff in April and May for Mountain Folk, SoCalians, Livermore Campers, Baseball Fans in Vegas, and Utah Mechanics. And it is baseball season, I'll be singing the national anthem soon. Ohhhh say can I sing... the right words... ummm.. So the band is getting back together for a Roseville gig Sat April 2nd 7pm - McNevin & The Spokes at The Acoustic Den w/ Patrick McClellan, Travers Clifford, Juliet Gobert. Prior to the show at 2:30, tune into KVMR radio (www.kvmr.org to listen online), a few of the Spokes are on live with host and pal Wesley Robertson. 

LA and San Diego - April 8th & 9th. The 8th is a Cobill with the Dale LaDuke Band at Coffee Gallery Backstage in Altadena, please tell your Southern CA friends! April 9th is a 20 act extravaganza at the Poway Center Of Performing Arts for "O Berkley Where Hart Thou?" - recreating the famous movie soundtrack in a 1000 seat theater - It's almost sold out, jump on tix soon. The NoCal beat goes on, weekend of April 16 & 17 I'm back in Fremont. Saturday the 16th is The Flight Wine Bar on Washington Blvd. And Sunday afternoon the 17th is a Mudpuddle Shop Show and song swap, featuring The Keller Sisters PLUS Dakota Sid Clifford and special sets, and of course Los Horribles ride again. 

April 22-24, the Two Day Town Music Fest is upon us. Livermore on Lake Del Valle, 1500 campers and musicians howling at the moon. McNevin & The Spokes play the MainStage on Saturday at 2pm-ish. We'll be camping and jamming on the 22nd and 24th too, which is half the fun, maybe even most of it. April flowers bring May sands. On the cooker for May -  Vegas at Garage Ma Hall, Cedar City at a comedy club, Parowan in a living room. Also slated to sing the national anthem for the Las Vegas "Area 51s" MLB Mets minor league team...  might be abducted and probed...
