The Sun Rose Again Today

The sun rose again today. it happens every day. 

Today is "World Kindness Day"  - too bad it's not like the sun. 

Facts for the day: 

Votes are still being counted. It's not the landslide that was/is being reported, but shows a great divide in perception of reality. My guess is it has something to do with where we are getting our information. 

Playlist as we count votes: 

"Waiting is the Hardest Part" - Tom Petty

"Too Soon to Tell" - Bonnie Raitt 

"Get UP Stand UP" - Bob Marley 

Hope you have the best possible day.

Veterans Day

My dad.

Thanks and Save the Dates!

Thanks to everyone who joined us at The Saloon yesterday afternoon to evening...

Arne got lucky with the parking, and the guys came out to help us unload. I was grateful that the color came back to my knuckles in short order after the drive over the GGB.

I was more than ready to purge my disappointments from the previous week, month and years through song. 

And purge, I did. 

We are working in some new tunes to the set, and I might finally be learning to pace myself, because I don't feel as exhausted as last time. 

Please save the date: 

December 14th. 

Saloon 4 - 8 pm

Until further notice, we are slated for every Second Saturday afternoon at The Saloon in 2025, so plan accordingly!  

That's all for now. Please join me in Cafe Tamburo on Substack.

Saloonacy!

Hey Everybody! 

So glad I get to sing today! 

If you are in the vicinity, stop by The Saloon, 1232 Grant Avenue, San Francisco, CA

We are just there to make music and have some fun. 

And, we have learned some new tunes!

Album is out January, in case you missed that note.  

Some misguided insecure boys are actually going around saying "your body, my choice" to women? Bitch, please. None of the Kings would ever even think of such a thing, never mind say it out loud. 

Be love, but push back on the bullshit.

Ox,

Live Music : Saturday November 9th 4 - 8 in San Francisco

Hey Everybody! 

Ok, I took a day. Time to get back to real life. 

Singing the blues on Saturday from 4 - 8 at The Saloon in North Beach. 

1233 Grant Avenue, San Francisco, CA 

Moving forward, I'll be sharing most of my political and life observations over on my Substack blog. It's free to subscribe, or you can choose to support my writing with a subscription. Thanks! 

In the meantime, take care of yourself, and the people you love. 

Do no harm.

Red, White and Blues

I can't seem to find the words to express the depth of disappointment I'm feeling. It's a good thing I'll have the opportunity to belt out some blues on Saturday. 

Time to take some breaths and work.

Be kind to yourself and let it flow to the world. 

I wish you enough. 

Ox,

Mari 

Election Day Blues

I voted already. 

I voted for democracy. 

My hope is that you understand the importance of this moment, and realize what it means for women and girls not only in the US, but in the world. 

It's not only about the choices we make, the main issue is that the choice to make is ours and ours alone.

Ox,

Mari
