Get ready for a night of great dancing! Gail Storm is back from her Korean tour and we eager to have back for our SDLI Tuesday dance at the Huntington Moose Lodge.
*Lou Margorie-freelance critic following a WPKN benefit at the Martha Clara Vineyards about Gail Storm:
“WOW...You and the boys were F....en Hot. I have never seen you with a band. I have ripped myself off for all these years. Your tough yet fragile appeal in conjunction with your heart-piercing icy hot vocals and restless but warm persona had the audience (me included) eating out of your hand and off your smokin’ 88’s. Your intensely personal lyrics whether covers or originals easily bait a melodic hook with the confidence of a Brill building pro. You are the perfect symbol of an up-jumped Blues persona. Sincere, technically gifted, committed to your roots, and by G*… worldly as hell. I know you have felt the Blues with which you so easily impart to your audience.... Your gifted ability to present truly happy music about life’s pains, anguishes, and suffering, and brief moments of glory, evidences why you are here to hear. “
Ed and Maria are collecting for “Caring Hands” Food Pantry in Huntington Station. Caring Hands in desperate need of food due to the last storm. Please donate any canned or dry goods for the month of October/November at any SDLI Tuesdays or Saturday dance. Why wait for the holidays - be generous now.
