Greetings from the Garage,
The summer season is coming to an end on the Sun Deck this Saturday and Sunday. Andy Tirpak will be subbing in for Claudio on Saturday and Phil Lean for me. On Sunday, we're going to do the "Super Group" again. The lineup will be Gonzo, Ron, Claudio, Gary and Phil. We're going to do lots of Ron's Garage and Gonzology songs all afternoon. Should be a blast. Please note the times below.
As the season draws to a close, Sunday will also be my last gig with Ron's Garage as an full time member of the band. I will be stepping down after some 20 wonderful years. I leave the band on the best of terms with unbelievable memories and great camaraderie. I will always love these guys like brothers. I am the luckiest guy in San Diego to have been able to play with these fine musicians and to be able to call them band mates and friends. I've just been so busy with my solo career and doing private events that I haven't been able to devote the time that Ron's Garage deserves. Ron Wheeler will continue to do the weekly updates from here on and he's already developing a new website. I will work my solo gigs at the Babcock & Story and will continue to work with Ron's Garage doing occasional private events and subbing in from time to time. It will be like being the 5th "Beatle".
