on the corner of Boylston and Fairfield, across the
street from the Prudential Center.
The draft beer is only $2 and their is a great selection of imported
beers. The Blues is new to Waldo's, but Vykki Vox and the Soul Searchers

What do they play?
Everything from Koko Taylor to Etta James, from SRV to Muddy Waters,
from Big Mama Thornton to Howlin' Wolf, from Freddie to Earl to BB
King. You get the idea...
So come on down and see what you've been missing, the Soul Searchers will
love to see you. And as a treat this Thursday (April 28th) they will
appear with SPECIAL GUESTS:
Gordon Beadle - Sax for Evil Gal & Luther "Guitar Jr" Johnson
&
Bruce Bearse - Keyboards for the Toni Lynn Washington Band
This should be a GREAT night of rockin' blues so bring your friends and

THE BLUES NEWSletter
This has been a busy few months for us, but GOOD THINGS have been
happening for THE CHARLIE DEE BLUES BAND! Since opening several times for
Grammy Award winner LUTHER "Guitar Junior" JOHNSON (Former guitarist for Muddy
Waters, the Blues Brothers, etc...) we've done several LIVE Radio broadcasts,
scored a spot hosting our own Sunday night blues jam in a real "Up and coming
club" (CR Goodys in Fitchburg,MA,) we've recorded the makings of our first
official release (FINALLY!) and have been invited to play at such places as
Cambridge's "House of Blues", & Worcester's "Plantation Club" as well as a spot
at "Harper's Ferry"'s annual blues extravaganza!
Whew, it's been quite a journey! And we're still having a lot of fun.
The blues jam ran extended from mid Feb till now. That engagement has attracted
lots of GREAT players who we've enjoyed having play with us. Eric "Two-Scoops
Moore (Keyboardist with LUTHER "Guitar Junior" JOHNSON) has been doing
semi-regular appearances with at at our Blues Jam as well as many other special
shows...
Several songs featured from our recent radio broadcast on WBRS have
been getting Radio Airplay on college radio stations around the New England
area and in other areas of the country
We've gathered a real following by being seen and heard in some key
places, along with all our regular shows...we've been averaging 3 shows/week,
but have done some 4 & 5 show weeks too! (What a pace! But we're playing
better than ever! What doesn't kill us makes us stronger!)
This past week we went into the studio for a marathon recording
session and recorded 13 songs onto the tape master. The best of these
are slated for a planned release on cassette tape (and possibly CD) which
we will make available at shows.
The release is affectionately being called "Blues from the Shoe
Factory" due to the studio location (in a turn of the century mill building
that once housed a Shoe mfg facility.) It will contain a mix of original
material from the band, along with the non-standard blues covers which are
found in our regular shows.
We're planning on making a professional video recording of this show, along
with allowing videocamera recording...so come on down
For those who don't know, our lineup is:
Charlie Dee : Lead guitar, slide guitar "extraordinaire",
vocals
Tom T. (yours truly): Guitar and slide guitar, vocals
Richard "Birdman" Burdell: fretless/fretted Bass thumping, and "Say
What?'s"...
"Cadillac" Steve Paul - Drums, vibes (and various other purcussion
thingys!) and "Say What?'s"...
"Hurricane" Bob Snyder - Harmonica, vocals, (Say
What?'s"...and various other percussion implements of destruction)
Charlie (with his trusty Gibson Firebird, among other axes...) pays
tribute to the likes of Johnny Winter, Albert Collins, BB King, Muddy Waters,
and Stevie Ray Vaughan...
I get to work out a bit during tunes by the likes of John Mayall's
Bluesbreakers, Albert King, Freddie King, John Lee Hooker, Willie Mabon,
William Clarke and Ronnie Earl...along with MANY original tunes...
A bunch of people have asked to be put on a mailing list so they can
find out about upcoming gigs, etc...
If you're on the list...you got this via e-mail...if you want to be on
the list or know someone who wants to be...drop me e-mail or ask to be put on
it at our next gig.
I often see familiar faces from the workplace or hear later on from
folks who saw the show who DIDN'T come over to say hi, and though we can't
always get to say hi to everyone during the breaks (we're sometimes busy with
show details...but we TRY), we're always VERY glad to see you there anyway!
(Folks, PLEASE come and say "Hi" to us...DON'T BE SHY! We don't bite! Your
comments about our shows are valuable to us!!!)
I hope to see you at our next gig, and maybe chat a while.

Raymond, NH will once again rock as the db wilfred band makes its
second appearance at the fabulous entertainment complex known as
PK II's Restaurant & Pub (whose motto is "Burgers R Us") this
Saturday, May 21.
PK II's technically qualifies as an "entertainment complex" because
it offers not only a restaurant, bar, and dance floor; not only pool
tables and video game machines; but also the best darn car wash in
Raymond!
We'll be on stage from 8:30 to 12:30. Yes, there is a dance floor.
No, there is no cover charge. (Directions are included at the end of
this mail.)
We'll be playing our usual mix of classic rock with a distinctive
twist of R&B and a dash of the blues, as well as oddities that are
ours alone. If you haven't seen us before, now's your chance.
And if you're an old friend, then be sure to stop in and say hello.
We just came off the first leg of our Spring Tour with a
standing-room-only performance at the First Annual Wilton Art & Film
Festival where we had the whole town literally dancing in the streets.
It was so successful that we've already been invited back for next year's
festival!
Here are some other important gigs we have coming up:

This is the last message you'll probably see from me regarding See No Evil,
as I've been TFSO'ed, and this is my last week here at Digital. Many thanks
to all of you who have supported the band over the past three years - we
couldn't have surived and thrived without your help!!!
There are still two band members here at Digital, guitarist Dave Ickes
(KELVIN::ICKES) and bassist Dave Nelson (SALEM::NELSON_D), so I imagine that
these messages will still be posted/mailed..... just not by me. 8^)
Don't forget that the High Hopes Balloon Festival is this coming weekend!
This is a wonderful event which benefits seriously and terminally ill children
in New Hampshire. And while helping others, you get to hear some great music!
Lost & Found, one of NH's best bands, starts the day at noontime. See No Evil
is on at 1:30pm. Then don't miss DEC's own Biggs Band, a *hot* 10-piece

THE BLUES NEWSletter
Well, the time has come for us to announce another change in lineup...
Bassist (and Founding Member) Richard "Birdman" Burdell is moving into the
wonderful world of home ownership/marital bliss and so will be quite busy with
wedding plans and "Home Improvement"... We wish him and his fiancee the best of
luck.
Stepping in to fill out the bottom end is Don Babineau, a familiar face
to some of you who came to the Sunday Jams at CR Goody's...Don also filled in
for us for a short period while "Bird" was on vacation. We're VERY happy to
have him join the band...He's an energetic figure on the stage, and he's quite
capable of using his talents to add quite a lot to our music!
So, many of you are probably wondering, "How'd it go?" over at "The
House of Blues"?
IT WAS GREAT!!
An hour before we were supposed to be going on stage they couldn't let
any more people in because we had already SOLD OUT THE SHOW!!! Wall to wall
people at "The House of Blues" to see THE CHARLIE DEE BLUES BAND on a Tuesday
night! We even had people who were on our guest list asking the door man to
have me come down and let them in because they could not let any more folks
in...but that was an OK problem to have...
The management was so impressed with our music, our promotion, and our
subsequent turnout, that they've scheduled us to headline again as soon as
both our schedules will allow...(on a BETTER night, QUITE a TRIUMPH for a local
band!) as well as possibly opening for some of the nationally known acts!
It looks like we'll be back some time in August...more on that as details
become available!
We were treated like royalty there by the staff...and the fans
were LOUDLY appreciative, dancing and grooving to the blues...cheering us on
through Charlie playing slide guitar with_everything_but_the_kitchen_sink
(from a beer bottle to "a chair"), and they were pretty much whipped into a
frenzy as Charlie, myself and special guest Bob Roy finished up the night with
a 3 guitar attack, each trading solos as we walked among the crowd!
A bunch of people have asked to be put on a mailing list so they can
find out about upcoming gigs, etc...
If you're on the electronic list...you got this via e-mail...HOWEVER,
for LOTS of UPCOMING EVENTS information about THE WHOLE NE BLUES SCENE, get
placed on our US mail mailing list, which includes a subscription to BLUES
AUDIENCE magazine (with information/schedules for all the areas blues clubs and
bands! See the June COVER STORY on THE CHARLIE DEE BLUES BAND!)

Well, the time has come for us to announce another change in lineup...
Bassist (and Founding Member) Richard "Birdman" Burdell is moving into the
wonderful world of home ownership/marital bliss and so will be quite busy with
wedding plans and "Home Improvement"... We wish him and his fiancee the best of
luck.
Stepping in to fill out the bottom end is Don Babineau, a familiar face
to some of you who came to the Sunday Jams at CR Goody's...Don also filled in
for us for a short period while "Bird" was on vacation. We're VERY happy to
have him join the band...He's an energetic figure on the stage, and he's quite
capable of using his talents to add quite a lot to our music!
So, many of you are probably wondering, "How'd it go?" over at "The
House of Blues"?
IT WAS GREAT!!
An hour before we were supposed to be going on stage they couldn't let
any more people in because we had already SOLD OUT THE SHOW!!! Wall to wall
people at "The House of Blues" to see THE CHARLIE DEE BLUES BAND on a Tuesday
night! We even had people who were on our guest list asking the door man to
have me come down and let them in because they could not let any more folks
in...but that was an OK problem to have...
The management was so impressed with our music, our promotion, and our
subsequent turnout, that they've scheduled us to headline again as soon as
both our schedules will allow...(on a BETTER night, QUITE a TRIUMPH for a local
band!) as well as possibly opening for some of the nationally known acts!
It looks like we'll be back some time in August...more on that as details
become available!
We were treated like royalty there by the staff...and the fans
were LOUDLY appreciative, dancing and grooving to the blues...cheering us on
through Charlie playing slide guitar with_everything_but_the_kitchen_sink
(from a beer bottle to "a chair"), and they were pretty much whipped into a
frenzy as Charlie, myself and special guest Bob Roy finished up the night with
a 3 guitar attack, each trading solos as we walked among the crowd!
A bunch of people have asked to be put on a mailing list so they can
find out about upcoming gigs, etc...
If you're on the electronic list...you got this via e-mail...HOWEVER,
for LOTS of UPCOMING EVENTS information about THE WHOLE NE BLUES SCENE, get
placed on our US mail mailing list, which includes a subscription to BLUES
AUDIENCE magazine (with information/schedules for all the areas blues clubs and
bands! See the June COVER STORY on THE CHARLIE DEE BLUES BAND!)

THE BLUES NEWSletter
Well, working out the new material has been keeping us busy, but we
don't mind it at all! After a weekend of pretty big outdoor gigs such as the
Hawg Haulers annual bash in Winchendon, and the two huge shows we did in CT
a few weekends ago, it'll be good to get back INDOORS to an air conditioned
room and more intimate crowd up at The Best Western - Royal Plaza hotel (off Rt
2 & 31, Fitchburg, MA)
Be sure to say hi to our newest member, bassist Don Babineau, a
familiar face to some of you who came to the Sunday Jams at CR Goody's...We're
VERY happy to have him join the band...He's an energetic figure on the stage,

H E L P !
The Cure For Beatlemania
Friday, September 8th
The Sit 'n Bull Pub
Rte 62, Maynard, MA
9PM - 12:30AM
Hi, Friends. The HELP! Summer Tour '95 came to an end last week with
a standing-room-only concert at Hampton Beach. What a perfect close to
a wonderful season. We want to thank each of you who came to see a show
(or maybe two... or three!). we had a great time and hope you did, too.
Some of you were previously aware that Mike (McCartney) Rolla's wife,
Dawn, is expecting this fall. Well, with true Lennon/McCartney-style
rivalry, we're now delighted to tell you that Paul (Lennon) Lussier's
wife, Laurie, is expecting this winter -- twins!
This means the band will be taking an extended vacation. Between now and
the spring, we're planning only two shows, both at the Sit 'n Bull Pub in
Maynard, MA. The shows will be next week, on September 8th, and three
months later, on December 8th. These will be your only chances to see
us until the spring (and our only chances to see you), so come on down
and HELP! us make them special nights.
Until we resume a full performance schedule, we'll be busy in the
rehearsal studio, so expect a few changes for HELP! 1996. We've got
to give our three new little Beatlemaniacs a good start.
We hope to see you soon, but if not until next year, have a joyous
holiday season.
Sincerely,
HELP! (Chris, Marc, Mike, and Paul)

| I know that this is probably not the correct note for this so please
move it to the correct one if necessary.
I would like to know if anyone out there has ever heard of Lyle Pierce?
He has an ad in the newspaper looking for a female vocalist for his
country band. My daughter had an audition on Monday evening and I
guess he was quite impressed. I would just like to know if he is
legitimate. I would appreciate any help I can get regarding getting
some information on him (good or bad).
Thanks,
Pat

| Follow up on note 5.195
Due to legal issues (i.e. another band that turned up with a better
claim to the name "A-1-A"), we have had to change our group name. Since
we want to call attention to our country and tropical tastes, the group
is now known as DURANGO MANGO! (Thanks, Betty!) And things are
picking up a bit ... we now have a full-time drummer and are beginning
to land some bookings .... stay tuned!
DURANGO MANGO is appearing this Saturday night (Feb.24) at the Uxbridge (MA)
V.F.W. on Rt.16, providing music for the New England Country Music
Club Chili Cook-Off. Admission is $5 per person for the chili dinner
which starts at 6pm; the music is from 7pm to 11pm. Come on down and
bring yer Pepto-Bismol!!!
We are also appearing the following Saturday (Mar.2) at the Foster
Tavern in Foster RI. It's near the intersection of Rt. 94 and Rt. 6
and we're playing from 8pm to midnight. If you're near the tri-state
region, then come on down and boogie with the band!!
