No Static will be playing Sunday, August 22 at the American Legion Coastside Post 474 in Half Moon Bay, one of out favorite places to play. We’ll be there again in early Autumn, on Saturday, September 25, and Saturday, October 30. These are all outdoor afternoon shows, 2-5pm.

The Scott Goldstone/Alan Oehler duo will be playing at the Highway 1 Brewing Company in Pescadero on Sunday, September 5, also an outdoor afternoon show, starting at 3pm. This is a super fun and friendly venue with great food and, of course, beer! Bring a growler to fill. Labor Day weekend is often blue and sunny on the coast, so this is a perfect place to spend a coupla-few hours rocking out and dancing.

We will also be returning to the St. Robert’s Festival in San Bruno on Saturday, September 18, at 4pm. This is a fundraiser for St. Robert Catholic Church and school, and is always a great end-of-summer blast of fun for kids of all ages. Games, rides, food & drink, live music, and a car show!

Update: The St. Robert’s Festival has been cancelled due to county guidelines around the current COVID-19 surge.

Well, the summer of 2021 is about halfway through, and things have been loosening up a bit around here lately. I played a couple of recent gigs with No Static (an outdoor private party in June and an outdoor gig at the American Legion Coastside Post 474), with a couple more on the horizon, and my duo with Scott Goldstone played indoors at The Coastal Vine in Moss Beach (formerly The Wine Room). A couple of the local jam sessions have restarted, though I have yet to attend any of them. My shelter-in-place recording project, alas, has not borne any new fruit since March, but I hope to have a few more of those completed soon.
