THIRDSTONE NEWS AND NOTES:
THIRDSTONE NEWSLETTER LATEST ISSUE -
Hello All!
THIRDSTONE NEWS: The date for the next ThirdStone show is finally clarifying a bit....seems I've been saying that for sometime now haven't I? I promise to have all the details and a real launch date in the next issue... thanks for all the inquiries. When it does finally get here, I can promise you it'll be worth the wait. The show will kick-off in Late November and the location will be announced soon. There are two additional West Michigan shows currently in planning and 2 "out-of-town" ones as well. I'll report more details on all of them soon as well.
Part of the reason for my seemingly continuous rescheduling of the next show is about to be made clear; just not quite yet! There is something intriguing that's been demanding of my attention and resources and that too I can now promise to share with you in the very next issue.
Okay. Here's the latest news of what I actually CAN tell you is goin' on around the area...
local news of all sorts:
