This seems like a good way to get the word out.

This is Stacie Sivyer from the Rainbow Bistro

First of all I'm glad to hear that your baby is home safe and sound. We

need to hear more stories with happy endings.

on another matter:

2- we are looking for bands interested in getting their foot in the door at the Rainbow bistro

I'm currently wrapping up December few dates I have left are: Dec 8, 9, 18, 22, 26, 27, 28
and then we go into '09

The typical format is: load in at 8:15 sound check at 9 for 3 50 minute
sets from 9:45-1:15ish

For those of you who don't know we provide a full PA system and a house sound man. payment is
80% of the total door revenue usually set at $5.

I know that often it's not great money but consider it a black (as opposed to "in the red") rehearsal
space. All you would need are your instruments amps patch cords etc. we provide the rest.

3- We are starting up a Pay-what-you-can Jazz Matinees on Saturday afternoons 4-7 with Sonic Blue.
They are a great local jazz band please come by and check them out.

If anyone has any questions or comments I'd love to hear from you

please contact me at bowbabi@hotmail.com

thanks Stacie Sivyer

Hi Everyone,

My bass baby is home safe and unharmed!!! I want to extend my sincere gratitude to all of you for your concern interest and support in retrieving this most valued part of my world. That reinforces my belief that all musicians are part of the same "extended" family and I am grateful to be counted among you.

It turns out that the thief pawned it at a neighbourhood store within the hour of stealing it. He obviously had no idea what he had as he only got $70 for it!!! After all that is a cheap price for a 1990 Fender Precision fretless set up with an active EMG jazz pick up configuration.

In fact it is the only one like it that I have ever seen. So in this case all ends well. I will be much more careful in the future.

Lesson learned.

My best to all.
