DR. VINNIE VEGAS BEHIND GLASS?








This Friday night, April 23, I'm singing in a downtown storefront window, for an art event called "Looking Out, Looking In" (http://www.lookinginlookingout.com/). This "supercool urban performance art happening" has been running all this week, and is being produced by my old buddy, art entrepreneur Paul Stewart.

The cool thing about Friday night is that it happens during Pittsburgh's very popular Art Crawl, so there is much to see and do. I'll be performing sporadically throughout the night, doing swing, blues, jazz and pop in my "Dr. Vinnie Vegas" persona. This is the first time I've performed in a street-level window since I used to do "robot-maniken" work in the mid-1970's.

If you happen to be downtown, please stop by to say hello, and have a great weekend regardless.
