The popular Portland based band The Sinners Club is continuing its 10th Anniversary celebration with the release of a hilarious debut limited edition live CD single of their original song I Like 'Em Young, Sept. 11 at Irving’s Bar and Grill at the Wilsonville Holiday Inn.
Written and sung by front man Dan "The Hofner Guy" Golden, the track is culled from a recent live TV concert appearance and humorously speaks to the merits of education and experience throughout life's journey. Backed by the band's top notch lineup of Golden on vocals and bass; the twin guitar attack of Jade Stone and Brian Jones; plus drummer Gene Wood, the tune also features a special guest spot by all-star sax player Pete "First Call" Moss, a well known figure in the local blues community.

Notes On A Napkin May 7
The highlight of April was definitely my birthday party at the American Legion Hall on SE 122nd. The fabulous Wood Works provided the tunes & the AL served delicious steak & crab. It was band member Kathryn Wood’s birthday celebration as well and the band packed the dance floor regularly. Many friends were on hand for the decadent chocolate cake (provided by friend Ed Jordan, fine drummer for Wood Works) Thanks Ed!. I requested the Beatles’ song When I’m 64 and leader Asher Wood was kind enough to learn it especially for the party. They called me up to the bandstand & I motioned all those at my table to join me to dance, while Asher sang. It was a blast! They also did the Beatles’ Birthday Song and lots of their original tunes.
On my real birthday April 17, friend & PE&D writer Jeff Shivers joined me at the M&M in Gresham to hear outstanding guitarist Terry Robb, who was joined by harmonica player extraordinaire Mitch Kashmar (see Jeff’s article this issue). We enjoyed a salmon dinner & were pleasantly surprised when friends & local musicians Taska & Cliff showed up & joined us.
