Gigs in September - Unusually Cool!
Hey Gang!
Some different and SPECIAL gigs happening this month. And even if you’re not local to ANYwhere (other than planet Earth), you’ll be able to catch at least one of them! Check it out —
First up is the coming Labor Day Weekend (here in the states).
On Friday, we’re VERY much looking forward to being on the bill with Little River Band!

Then it’s off to the birthplace of Orleans, Woodstock, NY!
This is our “Homecoming” gig, in the long-standing tradition of the many years we performed on Labor Day Weekend at the unbelievably awesome Opus 40. This year, for the first time since we played there in 1974, we return to the Woodstock Playhouse!

I can’t say enough about this Nashville show, which is a repeat of a similar show we did last October. Your best bet is to visit the webpage at www.OrleansOnline.com/Nashville.html where you can see pics, hear audio, watch video … even see a couple of complete tunes from last year’s show.
Now you’re armed with all the info you need to tap into some FUN in September. Hope to see as many of as can make it in VA Beach, Woodstock and Silver Creek. I’ll REMIND you about the webcast … so EVERYone can catch that!
PARTY ON!
Lance Hoppen
