Live Music Today - Lauris Vidal on Etc.

Steve Brown Etc. - http://www.stevebrownetc.com — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 13:36:09 +0000

Join me today at noon Eastern for live music with Lauris Vidal! If you've been listening to SBE or Etcetera lately, you've heard his stuff.

Lauris opened for Bill Mallonee at a local bar and he blew my mind. Ever since, I've been a big fan. I'm really looking forward to this. Check out Mr. Vidal on MySpace, then join us for the live stream.

Also, for Central Florida listeners, we'll be giving you details on a benefit concert for Kenyan orphans at Sunflower Park in downtown DeLand on November 30. Bring your Thanksgiving leftovers for a picnic in the park with music from Lauris Vidal, Magda Hiller, Dish, and my old band, Spicy Brown and the Musical Melee.
