Message from singer Lou Lanza


"hi,


just wanted to drop a line and let you know about some things that are coming up.

first off, i have begun a steady sunday night gig singing AND playing @ the prime rib in philadelphia. think bobby short at the cafe carlyle or the mel torme in hollywood cd and you have the vibe pretty much on the money. i am there from 5-9 pm and the prime rib is located in the radisson plaza-warwick hotel, 1701 locust street (17th & locust), philadelphia, pa 19103. call 215.772.1701 for reservations.

this friday night i will have the distinct pleasure of performing with the steve rudolph trio featuring steve meashey & tony deangelis from 7-11 pm @ the hilton patio bar and grille (weather permitting - we'll be inside if the weather is inclement) at the hilton harrisburg, one north second street, harrisburg, pa 17101-1601. if you are in that area or know anyone from that area, please forward this email to them. naturally, if any of you would like to make the trek out with me, by all means come one, come all!!!

on friday august 31st, i will be part of the philly song shuffle @ the world cafe live, 3025 walnut street, philadelphia, pa 19104, 215.222.1400. i won't tell you what part of the evening i am going on, that would be cheating, and i know you will enjoy all of the acts. here is the info:
