Its a very short issue today - but still a TRIPLE ISSUE. And we hope you check it out from top to bottom. The main reason for the issue, though, is to celebrate this special Thanksgiving time of year - celebrated yesterday with a holiday here in the USA, but hopefully commemorated in the hearts of all around the world. I want to express my thanks to all the performers who's names appear regularly in these issues for brightening the lives of so many - there is no greater treat than "live" entertainment.
I want to especially thank the folks who ran the ads, joined as members, and sent donations in order to make all of this possible. You have helped me pay my rent, feed myself, pay the expenses of operating the websites and the costs of attending shows. This has been one of the leanest" years I can remember, but every time I was at "wits end" there was someone that helped us make it through the day. And I want to thank the performers who's shows I did manage to attend, plus the songwriters, the musical directors, musicians & directors and even the tech folks, for adding a sparkle to my life.
More HERE & THERE items appear at the bottom of this issue - including any last minute news items that come in just before we "go to press" and more comments and commentary on the art and artists of cabaret.

ADELE ZANE RELEASES THIRD CD - "A STRANGER IN TOWN"
Adele Zane's newest CD, "A Stranger in Town" is probably the perfect companion to your broken heart or to the heart you've just broken. For singer/songwriter Zane's third CD she has enlisted the aid of virtuoso guitarist Andrew Green as both collaborator and arranger. More than willing to blur the boundaries between jazz, rock, pop and country, the duo have succeeded in creating a highly polished and well thought out merger of the genres. Todd Isler on hadgini, Jorge Roeder on bass and Jordan Perlson on drums round out a stellar selection of backing musicians. Jim Clouse makes a special guest appearance on drums and Hamcrest Riverton hands in a memorable cameo on Zane's original, Girl at the Bar. The CD is available at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/adele3 .
