Furthermore Sh*tty Barn Session

The details are few and far between, but if you’ve been meaning to check out Furthermore, mark your calendar for July 21st. They’ll be doing another Sh*tty Barn Session and at this point that’s about all I know other than Drew Peterson, of Minneapolis, will be performing. More details should be available soon.

And here you go with the promised “more details.”

Heads-up, friends of Furthermore!!! Drew Peterson will be setting up shop at the Barn in less than a week. Join us next Wednesday, July 21 at 7 pm (6 if you want to throw something on the grill in advance of the show), when this Minneapolis veteran will share a voice described as “ragged in all the right places”, tenderness, wit and a keen songwriting ability with a small and privileged audience.

For more information about the show, visit: www.shitybarnsessions.com

If you would like to hear Drew, click here: www.myspace.com/drewsmusic (I like “Sodapop”)

If you would like to be in the audience, please get your ticket in advance:
The General Store or at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/119271

The coals will be hot, the beer will be flowing, the music will be awesomeand as always, the barn will be shitty!!!

Your Pal,
Chris
