Jack Slade and The Underground

OMG. If you are a Gordon Lightfoot/Harry Chapin fan then this IS the man for you. I just found him in the Under Ground.

The UnderGround on Sunday night 35 + people
Jack Slade with a voice that is so smooth!

This was such a delight to find the talent that is still in SL. Jack doesn’t sing with backing tracks. He sings with a smooth even tone. From Bob Seger, Harry Chapin, Gordon Lightfoot, to Leonard Cohen. HAHA! I just found out his nickname is Jack Buttahh Slade. That is how smooth his voice is.

If you want a very mellow, easy to just close your eyes and lose yourself in then this man can do it. His playlist is hugeeeeeeeeee, He not only sings covers but has many originals as well. He takes requests and he delivers.

We were going there for 15 minutes and an hour later we are still dancing and listening. Then I knew I had to do this mini-blog. Look him up or contact his manager/wife ‘Miss Lou Slade’.

I shall be involved in an event in the future and plan to invite him to sing! Stay tuned for more information on that!!

Fantasy Faire 2020 – Literary Festival

An image should be here.

The Literary Festival (AKA Litfest) at Fantasy Faire 2020 returns for the sixth time and this time it has a sandy setting to honour a sandy storyline.

Litfest doesn’t just deal with the written word, it also delves into the spoken word with discussion groups, workshops, author talks, tours of the regions and much more.

The main setting for this year’s Litfest is Drifts of Anamnesis., an appropriate setting because this year Litfest pays homage to Scheherazade and the Tales of 1,001 Nights.
