Well, my goodness! Hello everyone, I am so excited about the events that are coming up this month, I have so much to tell you. This is my time of the year. First of all, you know my live entertainment shows at the Avenue Bakery will kick off the first Saturday of every month, starting in June through September, so I want you to mark your calendars.
Now, look my dear friends, if you missed the Juneteenth Celebrations in Annapolis last year, you don’t want to miss the 2025 Juneteenth celebration in Annapolis, Md. that will include the Carr’s Beach Reunion, a free event on Thursday, June 19 from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm. This event, hosted by Annapolis Recreation and Parks, will be held at the Annapolis Maritime Museum and Park and Carr’s/Elktonia Heritage Park, which are adjacent to each other.
The Carr’s Beach Reunion will be bigger and better, featuring the soulful music that crowds used to hear when “The Beach” was in its heyday. I know, Honey Child, because I was there! I mean, where else can you relax on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay and listen to James Brown, Otis Redding, Motown entertainers, The Shirelles, Barry White, and so many others we enjoyed back in the day. That was back in the day when Hoppy Adams and I used to emcee the shows.
Bring your folding chairs; vendors and food trucks will be on site. This is a free concert with two entertainment stages featuring: Mousey Thompson’s James Brown Experience with Greg Cooper; Stone Ellis & Phaze II Band; and Voices of Motown Philly. As I said before, this is a free event and is open to the public. Tarsha Fitzgerald and Buddy Davis are the emcees. We hope to see you there.
Well, my dear friends, I hope to see you at one place or another. Hopefully, when I see you, I will also have my new book with me to do a book signing. Remember, if you need me, you can call me at 410-833-9474 or email me at rosapryor@aol.com. UNTIL THE NEXT TIME, I’M MUSICALLY YOURS.
