Jim Mayer sat in with the Jon Frattasio Band at Jamie's Grille and Pub in Whitman, MA last night. They rocked the house! :D :D

Jim played a handful of his original kid's tunes from his new album Let There Be Fun (available soon on his website http://www.unclejimrocks.com), to the great amusement and enjoyment of the adults on hand. Songs included I'm 4 U, Everbody Needs a Chair and I Want To Know It All. Old favorites also included Tape and Three Legged Dog .

A few tickets are still available for Jim's kids show on Sunday in Pembroke, MA. You do NOT want to miss this show!! For tickets you can PM comtnfish or me.

Jim will also be sitting in with the Jon Frattasio Band tonight at Joe's American Bar and Grille in Hanover, MA. See http://www.myspace.com/jonfrattasio for more info.
