Marty's News March 2010

Hey All - Thanks for checkin out my calendar for this month. It's been another tough month as we said goodbye to longtime Cat member of 30+ yrs, Brian B.B. Bruce. B.B. passed away after a long bout with cancer last week. We'll miss him and his harmonica sounds dearly on the stages - and we'll look for him later on that stage that he's surely jammin' on now...
We'll be dedicating all our shows to B.B. this month and if you want to leave any memories or wishes to his friends, bandmates or family, you can do so on Henry Gray's Facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Henry-Gray/121419383888. If nothing else, raise a toast to B.B. at one of our shows or spin a few Henry Gray and the Cats cuts for him and groove the Blues with him once again.
This weekend we start it out with a double feature of Rue Boogaloo at the Shed BBQ and Blues Joint in Scott. We'll follow that with Henry Gray and the Cats at the Sale Barn in Abbeville on Saturday night. Both shows start around 7pm.

Hey Everybody! Here's the calendar for the projects I'm playing in February - What a month it has already been in Louisiana Who Dat!! For those of you in the Houston area, please come on out tomorrow (Thursday) night to the Crescent Moon Wine Bar and check out my acoustic show and grab some great dinner.
On a sadder note - those of you in the Cleveland Heights, OH area may have heard this but our good friend Greg Stiles passed away on Monday. Greg was the owner of a really great guitar store, Heights Guitars and we will miss him and all his songs behind the counter dearly. There will be a wake for him at the store on Friday night at 7pm. peace - marty
