I learned last Sunday from a "reliable source" that Doc Severinsen had moved back to his ranch outside of San Miguel. I was thrilled. Not only that, but, he was going to be entertaining again. Yeah.
Then I read later in the week that he was performing Friday, the 14th, but it was already sold out at VC & Friends. He entertains with a group of five musicians. It changes depending on location and venue, I think.
I asked my reliable source who tours with Doc how old he is now. I remembered when he turned 80. He is now 86..........and still plays a trumpet, amazingly well. He's set to have a birthday in July. I'm sure there will be an outpouring here in town for his return and his birthday.
The above photo is relatively recent. I did not take it. I figured out today how to move a photo from Yahoo to my Desktop and to insert it on this blog. Let's see, I've been writing this blog almost seven years and I just figured this out. Slow learner is an understatement.
I digress.
IF you're in San Miguel - going to be in San Miguel - or thinking of coming to San Miguel - come on down. Doc's show is first class and the cover is usually around 150 pesos (approximately $12 USD).
A bargain, to put it mildly.

I was so excited when I heard he was performing and so disappointed when I heard that it was sold out. Bummer.
