Rhode Island Hippie Alliance! April Meeting

I had a great tine! Jenny and adrienne are def cool to hang out with! Cant wait till next time!

WOW is all I have to say about last night's show! Nathan moore was amazing as usual and it was awesomr to meet some of the members of our group! Things I've learned as a new moderator: Have the meetup on the weekend! I'm wicked tired today! haha Someone suggested we have the next meetup at the Wheelhouse Tavern in Narragansett for the U-Melt show, Saturday April12th. Thoughts, anyone?

Hey, anyone get their Gathering of the Vibes tickets yet? I got mine last week for $160 and the price is goin up FAST! Also, this year they're sayin if you have 3 or more people in your car you don't have to pay the $20 early arrival fee at the gate on Thursday-yahoo! Let's make a tent city of our own and camp together-who's in?

Are you guys stoked for our upcoming meetup on the 31st? I so totally am! By the way, if anyone wanted to go to that MIA/Umphrey's/girl talk show at Brown-GOOD LUCK! Apparently it's tuff to get those tickets unless you actually are a student there :( HOWEVER- Girl Talk will be at Toad's in New Haven Fri April 25 and Umphrey's will be at Toads' in New Haven Sun. April 18. The Umphrey's show at the Calvin in NoHo,MA Fri April 11 will be so much better tho cos U-MELT is opening!

An awesome husband/wife celtic folk duo from Foster,RI,*Atwater-Donnelly*,are playing a few dates in RI.They do lots of ballads,traditionals and fun bluegrassy tunes! They also use this awesome percussive dancing man on a wooden plank that is called 'the limberjack' hehe They are definately fun times! The best is seeing them in the spring or summertime at one of their outdoor shows! (Upcoming show dates in post above-I hate how they have limits on these comment spaces!)
