This Month At Daddy’s!
May 8th, 2008Thanks to everyone who made it out to our Roland guitar clinics this week featuring guitarist ROBERT MARCELLO! Robert spent a bunch of time showing off the new Roland GT-10 pedal board - I’ve gotta tell you, I’m not a guitar player, but this machine blew me away! It is VERY VERY cool! It also comes in a bass version - the GT-10B which we just got in - stop by and check em’ out!
Don’t forget we’ve got a ton of events this month and we’d love to see you all! A lil’ something for you guitar players and drummers.
JOHNNY A returns for two more performances at Daddy’s this month. Tuesday, May 20, 6:30pm @ Daddy’s Portland, ME and Wednesday, May 21, 6:30pm @ Daddy’s Nashua, NH. $10 tickets for each performance are on sale now at ALL Daddy’s locations, or online by clicking here
