Well, 2005 would not be complete without one final bounce on the pogo stick...
Events have transpired that will allow me to participate in the remaining pair of Rock4Xmas shows after all. I am really happy that after all the work
that producer Wayne Morrison has put into this, these shows are going to happen and I'm going to be involved.
The new dates are Friday, December 9, in Buzzard's Bay Mass. - a great location within an hour of both Boston and Providence RI. Venue: The Pilot
House - North Bourne Rotary, Buzzards Bay, MA 02532 (508)759-1111
Saturday December 10 is slated for a venue TBA in Long Island, New York. I'll make that announcement as soon as it's confirmed.
I'll also announce other artists to participate as soon as that information becomes available, but the first word is that my good friend and fellow
Acoustic Outcast Terry Ilous will be on hand and I look forward to seeing him and working together again.
More to come.

After several conversations with Mr. Wayne Morrison, I am happy to announce that it looks like I will be joining Mr. Keel at these Rock For X-mas
shows. I'm greatly looking forward to getting in Ron's way onstage again before 2005 ends, not to mention jamming with the veritable who's-who of
other rockers that Wayne has assembled for these dates. I tried to participate last year but circumstances wouldn't allow it so I'm really happy
things came together this year. See you there, Boss!

RK -
I noticed on the Rock4Xmas website that show starts at 5:00. What time do you anticipate going on stage? I dont know if I could make it at 5 and
wouldnt want to miss you and JR. Also do know any information about tickets such as price and how to obtain them? Thanks
Eric
RK - 11-30-2005 at 02:59 AM
The local openers will start at 5 pm - most of our action will be considerably later in the evening. I have no ticket info, but shoot me an email and
I'll do what I can.

Ronnie and Jay.......if ya take a walk around Manhattan during they day ya just might run into JOY!! She is making yet another christmas shopping
trip to NYC!!
Eric781 - 12-5-2005 at 12:51 AM
Ronnie,
the rock4xmas website has the location of Fridays show listed as Wareham, MA. Is this so? Also, youre not listed as performing. Are you still going to
be there? If so, Im looking forward to seeing you this week!
Eric
JR - 12-5-2005 at 02:13 AM
Wareham and Buzzard's Bay are about five miles apart--right on the entrance to Cape Cod.
Eric781 - 12-5-2005 at 03:30 PM
Hey Jay,
Thanks for the input. I knew that the towns were close together. I just wanted to make sure that I go to the right place. I also wanted to make sure
anyone else that visits this site that was interested in going to the show had the right venue. On Ron's home page it still lists Buzzards Bay. Heck,
if they moved the show to Springfield, MA Id still go just to finally see you and Ron play! See you guys in a few days...
Eric

Apparently, judging from the R4X site, there has been yet another venue change. (Nobody told me). It now says: "Elk's Lodge - 6 Route 28, Wareham MA -
02571".
Elk's Lodge.
Also, the event has been renamed Tap 4Xmas.
Eric781 - 12-5-2005 at 05:26 PM
why would they want to tell the performers?
Eric781 - 12-7-2005 at 04:58 AM
Ron and Jay,
Make sure to wear your boots and gloves! Theyre talking snow for Friday here in Mass. See you then...
Eric
