Bob Zentz and Kendall Morse and Ken Hicks (Special Event)
When
19 Mar 2009
8:00 PM - 10:30 PM
Location
Glen Echo Town Hall Upstairs, Glen Echo, MD
Two Peppery Old Salts and One Salty Pepper-UpperThree old friends share the stage. Bob Zentz and Kendall Morse are two folks with maritime backgrounds, and their friend Ken Hicks is a songwriter who lives near the ocean. Storytellers and singers all, delivering songs for all the good people and tales for the telling.Bob Zentz, a Norfolk, Virginia native, is a singer with a vast repertoire of contemporary, traditional and original songs and tunes. Bob plays a variety of instruments including guitars, banjo, hammered dulcimer, harmonica, and concertina, though he might not bring the whole store. He?s spent the last couple of decades developing a large repertoire of maritime songs, and songs about the Chesapeake.Kendall Morse comes from Machias, in Down-East Maine, and spent a part of his younger days captaining boats among the islands of Maine. He is the great Maine humorist and raconteur par excellence, but his accent is the way he really talks. He also knows how to make a wicked-good fish chowdah.Ken Hicks, the "round mound of sound" from Virginia Beach, VA, is known for his humorous songs delivered amid monologues that leave one?s laugh-muscles aching. He is also the author of the folk classic, "All the Good People." This is a rare opportunity to hear him perform; sometimes it seems like he doesn?t get around much anymore. There will be a brief membership meeting at the end of intermission (approximately 9:00 pm) where nominations from the floor for the 2009-2010 FSGW Board will be accepted by the Elections Nominations Committee. FSGW Members may attend the meeting segment only without admission charges.
