Hard Rock Cafe Tomorrow & HCC Front Page News!

I'm gearing up for another great time at the Hard Rock Cafe in downtown Houston tomorrow evening (Thursday, October 11) from 7-8 pm CT, and am sending this reminder to everyone on my email list to please help me spread the word. I aim to get another big crowd of Houstonians out to this fabulous "Think Pink" event: Houston Chronicle music critic, Joey Guerra, says, "October -- means Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Department stores from Target to Neiman Marcus are hawking all things pink. The Think Pink Dinner Acoustic Series at the Hard Rock Cafe is an inspired addition to the list. It should draw fans of local music and patrons dedicated to supporting the cause. The benefit for you? Genuinely good music -- besides the warm-and-fuzzy feeling from supporting breast-cancer research and awareness. The event showcases talent every Thursday in October, and proceeds benefit the Susan G. Komen Houston Affiliate. And we're not talking cheesy cover bands!" (Of course not. No cheesy cover music. It will be the original songs of yours truly, accompanied by the amazing Steve Oddo on his handmade washtub bass. A one-time only, live event.) Also, I was pleasantly surprised to see some of my lovely Houston Community College students at the Hard Rock last week, managing to find time to support both their writing professor and a very worthy cause despite the extremely busy lives they lead, going to school and working full time. Wow. They are such an inspiration to me, and I am lucky to know them. What's more, yesterday I was informed that Houston Community College featured me and my guitar this week in full color on the front page of the school's District 2 newsletter that was mailed out to thousands of Houston households! (And it was even a pretty good picture, too--taken during a performance in Austin at the North American Folk Alliance Conference.) So, all is well (in fact, better than ever) in the world of Glenna Bell Music. Thank you for taking the time to read this much. And please write me when you get a chance--even just a few words from you would mean a lot to me. In the meantime, I wish you all the best. Y'all come!
