Greetings  and Salutations
Dear fellow   patrons ,  musicians, poets, philosophers and other human beings who
frequent Luna Star Cafe.
My name is  Rowena Wallach.
I am also known as  Luna Star Cafe’s  Open Mic ‘Comedy Poet(ess) with the  British accent.
Those of you who have ever heard my poems    ‘Aunty’   (piles) , ‘Whiskers (eating cat food)
and of course    ‘Georgie’ ( flashing)   will definitely remember me!
I’m also the wife of  ‘Prof’ Rick Wallach  ( ’nuff said!)
Rick and I have had the immense   pleasure of knowing  and appreciating  Alexis,Keith
and LUNA STAR CAFE for over twenty years and  look forward to having them around another twenty!
So, I’ve done  the math and bet that  if  everybody  who  enjoyed an evening at Luna Star Cafe   either by  performing , listening ,  drinking,  eating    and /or hanging out, made  a donation,
we will be able to properly repay and thank Alexis and Keith for all they do for us!

So come you chaps…… make sure that Lunar Star Cafe  survives
the Great Coronavirus Shutdown of 2020 by donating today.

AND  NOW……..
THE  LUNA STAR CAFE CORONA ( not beer)VIRUS 19  SHUTDOWN BLUES

Lyrics
When  the coronavirus  came  along
We paid no heed ,but we  were wrong
We were told to ‘stay away
Now no one’s at  Luna Star Cafe
Now no one;s at Luna Star Cafe
There ain’t no cash for  the Cafe
(Flashy guitar riff)
Chorus
We’re gonna send ‘cash’  though it ain’t from the bar
We’re gonna ‘hang out’  though it’s from afar
We’re gonna donate ,  gonna keep that place goin
We’re  gonna make sure that the beer will keep flowin.

I challenge our musician friends to add a verse and set this to music
Have fun!

My GoFundMe Poem!

When Luna Star Cafe is closed there isn’t any trade.

No one’s sitting at the bar, no music’s being made.

No one’s drinking any beer or ordering from ‘the board’

No one’s tipping Monica who’s much loved and adored.

No one’s there with any cash, no one’s there at all

Now Alexis’s Cafe bank account is seriously small

So please send your donations.  Help Luna Star Café!

If you live in another state, send something anyway!

Imagine you drank a beer or two and paid the cover charge.

Imagine you ate a pasta dish served on those plates so large?

It’s easy to thank Alexis with applause and words of praise

It’s time we said “THANK YOU” with donations till the VIRUS goes away!

THANK YOU THANKYOU THANK YOU THANK YOUTHANK YOU THANKYOU
AND
We also accept checks and cash in plastic bags ( just kidding  ..maybe)
AND
Please  share the  GoFundMe  link by  Facebook/ Instagram/ Twitter/ Messenger and Email
AND
DON’T FORGET TO ORDER FROM
THE TAKE OUT MENU ON LUNA STAR CAFE FACEBOOK PAGE
STILL CASH ONLY!

MICHAEL WEISKOPF
Coming of age in the 60s was a lucky break. It was a turbulent time that was transformational not only to my world view but also in lifting the gates on the limitations and fears on which many of us were raised. For me, the music of the time was the doorway to my liberation. It began with access to R&B, the Motown explosion, and then the Folk world which was expressed in the voices of Bob Dylan, Dave Van Ronk, Lightening Hopkins, John Lee Hooker, Jack Elliott, Phil Ochs, Tom Rush, Joan Baez. The marriage of Country to Blues to Folk and ultimately Rock and the “British Invasion” made those who tried to define popular music by segment seem out of touch. As these definitions began to blur, so did the barriers between people begin to break down. It was a time of turbulent change that tore down the laws that permitted segregation, dared us to challenge convention, and forced us to question a government that pursued a war which seemed wrong to many of us being told that we had to fight it. I was never content to just listen; I wanted to learn how to express myself with music as my language.
In addition to my solo work, I am the lead singer of The Complete Unknowns, a band that celebrates the catalog of Bob Dylan. Virtuoso guitarist Randolph Hudson III is a co-founder of the band, and we have been performing for the past five years. I have also been a member of The Lost Keys and The Psychedelic Summer. Both bands celebrate the music of the 60s.

Sarah Jacob views songwriting as a catalyst to navigate through emotions and give them voice. Aided by her love for puns, double entendres and allusion, her songs transform the confusions and ambiguities of inner experience into a “language of the emotions.” Since 2012 Sarah, who composes on the piano, has teamed up with Darrell Arnold, baritone vocalist and guitarist, and Fred Napolitano, saxophonist, forming the Sarah Jacob Trio. The result–mixing hints of jazz, blues and folk into contemporary rock-ballads–is an original lyrical and musical blend. The trio combines a sense and sensibility that make for beautiful songs, offering a psychological expedition of the inner world.

Darrell Arnold

Darrell Arnold’s compositions are soulful folk-rock, with a twist of country blues.
