Neon News 2016-03-01 Small World, Big Party

Hey Fanz!



I've been sending out the Neon News once a month. As I've been getting busier and busier, the newsletter has been getting longer and longer. Lately, I've been hearing "Why didn't I know about that?" from people who've been receiving the newsletter. So I'm going to try a new tactic -- I'll send you a brief message once a week with just a couple of things for you to pay attention to. Let me know how this works for you.

---

What happened . . .



One of my new adventures is the T-Dot Sound Crew, a latin band in the "Tropical Bass" groove. We opened for Juno-nominated Mexican-Canadian artist Bougat at the wonderful Lula Lounge last Thursday. I love writing charts for three horns!

---

Coming up . . .

Here's an all-day party this Sunday, and you're invited!

Sunday, March 6, 3:00 - 6:00 pm and 7:30 - 10:30 pm
Rambunctious
Live Recording Dance Party & Fundraiser
Small World Music Centre. 180 Shaw Street
Get tickets



We'll do two shows. Each show will feature an opening set by A Little Rambunctious, followed by a blowout dance party with the full band. Our friends Shamez and Jolyane from La Palette will be running the bar (cheap drinks to help get the vibe flowing).

See ya there!

Luv,
Wayne
