B and the Sting band at Lake Harriet Bandshell Friday, June 26th

Free. Musical performance is 7:30-9:00 PM. I plan to be there by 6:30 PM. Come early for introductions and conversation *before the music begins*. *B and the Sting* Fronted by vocalist and guitarist (and melodica, among other instruments) “B”, Barbara Meyer. Their music: roots rock and reggae: frequent reggae sounds; bluesy rock and roll. Their song choices: sometimes earthy, always uplifting - a mix of originals and covers. A couple of my favorite covers they’ll likely perform include the sixties pop hit “5 O’ Clock World” (The Vogues, 1965), complete with yodeling - at which Barbara is quite capable; and Ziggy Marley’s “Love is My Religion”. B and the Sting’s motto is: “Love Everybody”. This band is fun, their music danceable. *Come share in the love*.

Feel free to join in or not, with or without a partner. It's typically it's a fun group-dance happening at Lake Harriet. Parking: Pay parking in nearby lots. I can usually find a free spot on the street on the neighborhood just to the west of the bandshell area on Queen Ave S. Bring a lawn chair or blanket, water, cash *and* credit card (probably both is best) for parking, or food at the concession area (the Bread and Pickle), possibly a food truck, or bring your own food, if you so desire. You *might want to bring an umbrella* in case an unanticipated passing rain shower pops up. Mosquito repellant may or may not be needed (your guess is as good as mine). I use ear plugs when dancing near the band (your call, of course). Weather: In case of rain: monitor the Minneapolis Parks Music in the Parks Facebook page:…
