Saturday: Stone Soup ‘rent’ party
7:41 pm on May 15th, 2008 by Dave Segal
This comes from RI activist (and former vice presidential candidate) Richard Walton:
Hi. Many Rhode Islanders are familiar with Stone Soup, the Pawtucket coffee house that is just coming to the end of its 27th year of providing first rate folk music. To celebrate the end of the season, and to raise money for next season, Stone Soup is holding a “rent party” this Saturday, May 17 at the Blackstone, a new club at 1005 Main St., Pawtucket in the old Hope Webbing Co., now the Hope Artiste Village. Admission, $25.
The show, which runs from 4 to 9 p.m. and includes hor d’oeuvres, will be a musical history of the coffeehouse with such performers as founders Bill Harley, Joyce Katzberg, Kate Katzberg, those who came along a bit later like Atwater-Donnelly and those of more recent years like Corinne Wahlberg and The Gnomes plus other fine artists. Bill Harley and Joyce Katzberg are also well known for their progressive activism as is Phil Edmonds, one of the Gnomes.
It will be music, music, music for five hours. The schedule is included in the following press release. Hope to see you there. Peace.
