Beautiful crisp and windy morning. Had such a good time last night, it's really a busy music moment in Vero.
Got word that Kent Taylor Brown had 'happy campers' at YNOT Club last evening.
Norman Burch reports:
A quick review of YNOT - Kent played, sang and orchestrated his guest artists in his usual wonderful way. The evening was capped off by a great duet of Chatanooga Choo Choo by Judy and Melinda.
Too bad I missed all that. I had promised Frank Gavin that I would go hear some friends of his, the duo, Low Key, at the Blue Star wine bar on the island.
I had a great seat, right up front with my old friend, 'Capt.' Dave Murphy.

These two guys, Bob and Eric really play well together - Bob Martens on mandolin, (such a sweet sound from that instrument) and Eric Olson on vocals and electrified acoustic. Very nice sound and I loved the songs. I'd call their style eclectic American, leaning toward country/folk. Amusing lyrics such as "a bad day of fishin' beats a good day of anything else," a song written by a local. And then, part of a verse that talks about not catching any fish and Eric laments that, "tonight's fishfry's gonna taste like chicken." Eric Olson has a very strong and fine voice for these songs. I kept wanting to hear him do some Bob Dylan and eventually he did. We heard "Don't Think Twice" and then some James Taylor followed. Overall, a good music night at Blue Star.
Gotta rest up for the 14th Avenue 'dance party' tonight. Starts at 6 and goes til 9 pm.
Park in the back and access the lounge from there. And bring your dancing shoes.
