Alma Sings Tonight at the Tarpon Ice House in Port Aransas

When Alma aka The Songbird of the South Gulf Coast has a singing gig she sends out an email announcement. The way Alma describes it it always makes me want to go.

There is a place on Lake Eagle Mountain called Augie's Sunset Cafe that is what I picture Port Aransas to be like. I don't know if Augie's Sunset Cafe survived flooding a couple years ago. It was in very deep water.

Anyway, below is Alma's Tarpon Ice House singing info. If you're in the neighborhood you'll likely want to go. I'd go, but my neighborhood is about 400 miles north of Port Aransas. I love the part about 'island time' and 'leash your doggie if it is skittish'....

Alma will be opening for Al Barlow at the Tarpon Ice House on Saturday November 8, 2008.

5pm to 8pm-ish Island Time

Come join us early and secure your good seats to watch tonight's show. Alma will be opening at 5pm and singing until Mr. Barlow starts. She will be doing all her old favorites and re-introducing new material she's worked up in the past few weeks.You can bring your doggie. Leash the doggies if they're skittish.

You can meet the friendly and interesting Port A locals who call the TIH their second home. The lovely Sheila or Julie will be your bartendresses. These wonderful ladies have a talent for knowing just when your beer is iced down to perfection! Join us and relax and chill in this unique open air venue. If you get hungry, there are a coupla restaurants where you can take a break and eat or you can call the Port A Pizzeria or Thaiphoon and they can deliver munchies to you. Alma recommends the chicken wings and the green chicken curry. Her favorites.

Then stay and have some more ice cold beer and listen to the very cool sounds of Al Barlow. Alma will be hanging around to meet you and check out the show.

If you have TOO much fun, they will call you a cab. The fare is only $5 anywhere in town.What a deal!

So, come on down. They'd all love to meet you! It beats hanging around the house and watching TV. It's another gorgeous day in Port A and of course, it will be another gorgeous night!
