Open MIc Night and Mom's Blue Heels

We have a place in Pitman called the Bus Stop Music Cafe.  It's about become our community center - lots of music and good food.  A lot of the friends in our world have been made through connections that began on Open Mike night and went on...and on...and on!!  One such friend - no better could a person ask for...is Wendy Betz.  The first time I met her, I Photoschmoozer was attracted to the blue high heels Wendy was wearing.  Right away she had a story to tell me about them - they were her mom's and now they are Wendy's and they fit perfectly!!  From open mic nights, Wendy continued on with collecting her guys in a band - amazing all of them - Ian writes, sings and plays the piano and keyboard; Jim totally gets lost in the sounds from his drums - a lively addition to the beat; Rob - a newer member of the band is an incredible guitar player and Steve - well, he played guitar and has now switched to bass - quite talented - last night extended the group's entertainment opportunities - and here they all are in their special moments!!  Watch for them at Uptown Pitman Farm Market and other venues on both sides of the river.  You won't be disappointed - and our friendships continue to grow.  Through the Bus Stop...and Wendy - we now have 22 weeks of music bookings at the Farm market too!!  It's all so awesome - and for me/Photoschmoozer it began with the blue shoes!  Someone asked if I had a shoe fetish and I said NO, I am just fascinated by how people express their individuality by what they choose to wear on their feet!! 

Wendy Wails!!

Photoschmoozer - me - loves to talk to anyone - pay attention to the synchronicities of life - and make new friends!  Meet Wendy Betz - here she is dressed to perform at the Bus Stop Music Cafe in Pitman with her band - Wendy Betz and the Riseing.  Yes, like you, I questioned the spelling of the word - why the 'e'??  She made me notice that it got my attention as it does many others.  People remember them in a different way.  We casually met before this event as we listened to music on open mic nights, gradually got to talk more and now have become members in our ever evolving "Pitman family".  It's focued around music, the Uptown Pitman Farm Market and now acupuncture, nutrition and alternative healing.  Just one more lesson of paying attention to the synchronicities and living life!  One never knows what lessons and adventure are just around the bend!!!

And folks - we can't forget Brother Doug@!@  J
