Tonight Lily Tomlin comes to Olympia! When my daughter heard this, she wanted to know: "why? Is her career hurting? She used to be really good!" I defended Oly, but it started me thinking.

Wouldn't it be GREAT if we could organize a regular series of events that would appeal to "women of a certain age..." To my mind that's over 25. There's alot going on for those under.

I'm tired of driving to Portland, Tacoma or Seattle for good, political, indie, spoken word, music, what have you... I know these things come and go with local interest over the years... so what about it? Do we have any others out there?

Proudly, I was asked last year to submit information to be a part of this website. I had kind of forgotten about it, and stumbled on it today. After you check my page, enjoy the entire website - a history of music of The Pacific Northwest.
