SoundCheck band returns to Ft. Myers Beach

April 13th, 2012

Hi Gang: the Florida band I play with, SoundCheck, returns to Ft Myers Beach this Saturday night 5:00-10:00pm. We will be located right next to the beach in an area that they call “Times Square” on account of the cool clock they have there! http://www.fortmyers.net/beach.html

It is a real hopping area with lots of tourists and locals.

In the pic below, I am the guy on the far left who has been eating too much seafood alfredo!

Weight Watchers is in my future in Denver! See you all again as of May 1st!–Larry

SoundCheck band plays Ft. Myers Beach

January 25th, 2012

Sound Check will be playing this Saturday night 4:00-9:00 on Ft Myers Beach. We will be located on an outside stage in the middle of an enclave of restaurants and shops right next to the beach that they call Times Square. It is a real hopping area with lots of tourists and locals. If you know the location of Doc Ford’s on the east side of the bridge, you should know that you just cross the bridge and our location will be in the area on the right after the bridge.

For those of you in Ft Myers it is very convenient and easy to find.

For those of you coming up from Naples or other points south, you can either come up 75 to Bonita Beach Road and follow it all the way to Ft Myers Beach as it winds on a beautiful drive. You can also go up 41 to Bonita Beach Road and turn left on BBR and follow it to Ft. Myers Beach.

This will be our first gig on the beach and it should be alot of fun.

Hope to see some of you there. If you haven’t seen the Ft. Myers Beach area you are in for a blast.
