Join us for a night of live music, friends and good food at a fundraising event for the youth missions trip of Christ Lutheran Church in Faribault.

We'll be featuring The BeeKays, a genetically gifted old time country/rock family band playing a little bit of everything from country favorites, bluegrass and a bit of rock and roll. Requests of all kinds will be taken so if you have a request, post it on the Facebook wall for the event (Third Annual Concert in the Yard.)

All proceeds go towards the Christ Lutheran Church mystery (destination) youth mission trip.

Summer is here (sort of) and it's time to start planning for the house concerts at our place so here's what's up for 2013!

We have two shows on the schedule for this summer/fall so mark your calendars, invite your friends, and plan on attending as both are sure to be a great time!

First up is a fundraiser for the youth at Christ Lutheran Church (Faribault) scheduled for Friday, July 20th. This house concert is a way to help raise money for the youth group's annual mission trip. This year we will be featuring the BeeKays, a genetically gifted old time country/rock family band playing a little bit of everything from country favorites, bluegrass and a bit of rock and roll.

The suggested donation is $5 for the show and there will be other opportunities at the show to give money to this good cause. The doors will open at 6:00 and the show will start around 7:00.

This fall, our 8th Annual Party and House Concert is on the schedule for Sunday, September 23rd. We are excited to have Dan Navarro returning for a repeat performance. This year we also have a special treat with the return of Dan Schwartz on guitar and mandolin and, for the first time, Brian Roessler on bass!

Check out our website (campdave.us) for articles from the previous years and then plan on joining us for the show. (Who could forget the "rain set" in 2010 or the "fire pit" encore in 2011?)

We are starting the party at 2:30 with the show starting about an hour later at 3:30. The suggested donation for tickets is $20 and all of that money goes to the artists so come and enjoy some live music while supporting these very talented musicians.

For those who haven't had the chance to enjoy the good times at one of our shows, we always plan on being outside in the backyard, but if the weather doesn't cooperate, we hold the show in a large party tent. That means you can plan on attending now and know that you'll have a good time regardless of the weather.

We'd love to have you and your friends attend these shows so please share this info with anyone you think would enjoy a night of food, music, and fun (with emphasis on fun.)

We will have more details for the BeeKays show on our website in the middle of June and the Dan Navarro show by the begining of August. In both cases we'll send out email notifications to our mailing list (so, if someone forwarded this email to you, make sure you go to our website and sign up for our emails so you get all of our updates.)

If you have any questions or are planning to attend, please feel free to contact us at our This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. email address.

We hope to see you in July and September!

Another great performance by Navarro and Schwartz!

The weather was a little cool but once again the company was great. We'll mark down 2011 as the first time Dan played TFA with the wood burning in the fire pit. Pretty special seeing the guys around the fire performing some of our favorites (and hearing Dan Schwartz playing one of his own songs!)

Thanks to everyone who made it to the show and additional thanks to those who helped with the sound and the food (and the other things that make these house concerts work!)  Without each of you we wouldn't be able to do this.

Dan Navarro will be back in the area on December 10th as part of Decembersongs in a show that will be performing at Zumbrota's Crossings at Carnegie. Dan will be performing with Amy Speace, Sally Barris and Jon Vezner. It will be an acoustic show and they will be performing original, contemporary and traditional holiday songs. I'm sure it will be a wonderful show so don't wait too long to make your reservations.

To keep track of all Dan's activities you can keep follow him on his Facebook page and on his website, www.dannavarro.com.

For those of you interested in following Dan Schwartz, you can visit his website, www.danschwartz.net or follow him as part of New Roots Duo or The Neighborhood Trio.

Thanks again to everyone for supporting live music at our house and making this year's house concert a success. We look forward to seeing everyone again next year!
