[Joel Cage ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Wed, 03 Apr 2002 14:21:45 -0500 From: Joel Cage Subject: JCUD 4.3.02 ..on hope .. PLEASE SEND ALL RESPONSES TO: mail@joelcage.com JOEL CAGE "WEEKLY" UPDATE April 3, 2002 Howdy Blokes and folks. Fresh back from an interesting trip to San Fram. A beautemous city .. took in a few sites, including a "private" tour of Alcatraz - many thanks to Jamesy and Mr. John Cantwell. Walking in the steps of the notorious is always inspirational - strummed a few tunes and unloaded some merch to boot! Now, the haps: Apr 6 10PM The All Asia Cafe, Cambridge, MA 617-497-1544 A prelude of greater things to come. Apr 11 8PM Squire Roper's Tavern, East Hampstead, NH 603-382-7180 I picked this one up from a good old buddy o' mine who'll be sitting in - - never been. Here's to all things old and new! Apr 12 8PM The Broken Spoke, Meredith, NH 603-366-5511 Twas a time I kicked out the jams in many a biker bar - now I get to find out if I've been "softened" by all them folk-tendencies... Oddly enough, biker-guys are among the most "sensitive' of all the folks for whom I've had the honor to perform .. go figure... and sooo close to home, no less... this joint features an awesome collection of Harleys on display for you enthusiasts and voyeurs. Apr 13 11PM The All Asia Cafe, Cambridge, MA 617-497-1544 A NEMO performance - my 6th, I'm proud to say... always an inpressive event. This particular evening shall sport the attendance of a record-industry mover & shaker in town to pass judgement on my worthiness of his honored support and transaction .. which will more than likely be based on how many friends I have in the audience rather than the quality of my tunes. Thus being the case, I would be "tresthankful" for your presence. For all my past beseechment upon y'all to attend a performance for the betterment of all mankind, here's one where you may actually may make a difference. Plus, it's a cool joint .... Wouldn't it be an adventure! And a few down the road for which to look forward: Apr 27 8PM The Vanilla Bean, Pomfret, CT 860-928-1562 May 3 9PM The Kendall Cafe, Cambridge, MA 617-661-0993 Jun 29 8PM The Burlington CoffeeHouse, Burlington, VT 802-864-5888 Jul 19-20 8PM The Big Kahuna, Bridgton, ME 207-647-9031 Sep 19 8PM Middle Earth Music Hall, Bradford, VT 802-222-4748 If You've Read This Far Dept.
