Tonight is going to be a very special evening...
For the past ten months, I have had a "goal" day of May 21, 2011. It's a day that I've thought about and looked forward to that has carried me through the difficult months of breast cancer treatment and post-treatment complications. It's the day that I'll be stepping back onto the stage and performing my original music again, my first concert since my diagnosis on 07/15/2010. When Donna from the Saco Coffeehouse booked me and friends Heather Pierson and Rusty Wiltjer for tonight's concert, I had not yet been diagnosed. After the diagnosis and first surgery, I assured Donna that I was determined to be well enough to do that concert and that it would indeed be a very special evening. That day is here...and I'm so glad to be feeling well and to still be on this planet!
The performance is at the Saco Coffeehouse at 60 School Street in Saco, Maine. Admission is $10 at the door (children under 12 are free). Open mic starts at 7pm, followed by opening perfomer Hattie Simon. We'll be on from 8:00 to 9:30pm. If you're in Maine, we'd love to see you there! (And if you're from away and can only be there in spirit, I'll be posting some video footage for you soon!)
Best wishes,
Kristen
