It is ALWAYS a challenge for LB to find something new and fun for us to do on the weekend.  Since this weekend is one day longer than normal [and last night was about the Cellar Upstairs.  again], LB found an opportunity to visit a new restaurant with the purpose of supporting a band that we’ve heard only once before during a visit to Tom and Betty’s.  The band is named for the talented performer Chris Thomas who has launched a fund raiser to help him on his quest to visit Europe.  The cover charge was $20/person, but we discovered the event after it was sold out.  Our only option was to find a table in the bar area (first come first served).  Which we did.We were starving (as usual) and enjoyed two appetizers… hot wings

and crab & artichoke dip on grilled pita points

Then the entertainment

This performer is SO talented.  He engages the audience [who love him].  He begins his set with songs recently made popular by Michael Buble and continues into the evening with songs that were popularized in the 80’s and beyond.  On occasion he has a 16 piece band.  Tonight was an abbreviated band, but still very impressive.  The Chris Thomas Band is great

It was a great show, and something different for a Sunday night… but the best news is… tomorrow is Weekend Day 3!
