Rickey Meredith presents his 70s Solo Acoustic Show at the Slauterhouse Brewing Company in Auburn this Sunday afternoon. Hello folks, and come on into the first weekend of March 2021 as we continue to work toward reopening our world in a hopefully hope-filled post-pandemic place and time. Little by little, we are seeing the signs of a safe society beginning to bloom, and boy howdy, is this guy ready for that to happen. I played my first gig of the year last Friday at Harvest Market Farmhouse bar and restaurant to a nice crowd of family, friends and fans. I can't even begin to describe how good that felt, and it really made me realize just how much I missed playing out live. Thank goodness for the fun online streams (I'll continue to do those), but as we said all along, nothing beats the feel of live music seen, heard and experienced as it's meant to be and has always been done, in person, happening in real time. As we move forward, let's all do our best to keep the safeguards up to prevent any backsliding toward those nebulous but necessary days of lockdowns and quarantines we all lived through only weeks and months ago.
