If you’ve been at all curious about our conversations regarding Positive Music, what it is and what it does–there are a couple of special opportunities to find out more, coming up VERY SOON!
The Mega Posi Awards Show, produced by Empower Music and Arts (www.empowerma.com) is going to be held here in Florida for the first time, on January 18-20th at the Doubletree Resort in Orlando. David Roth, Sloan Wainwright, Harold Payne, Jan Garrett and J D Martin, Freebo, Daniel Nahmod, Jana Stanfield–these are just a few of the nominees for this year’s Posi-Awards.
In addition to the nominees concert on Monday night, and the Award winners concert Tuesday night, the late Monday night Pajama Jam is my favorite–a chance to get up close and personal as these musicians perform casual 20 minute slots in their hotel rooms. BIG FUN!
Most of these folks are taking advantage of being here in Florida by arranging other gigs while they are here, and we are fortunate to have one of the best–David Roth–right here in Gainesville FL this coming weekend!

David has performed in Gainesville before, but this weekend he will be doing a songwriting workshop Saturday afternoon (January 16th) from 2-5p.m., followed by a mini-concert at 7:00pm and a song sharing circle. Email elainemahon@mac.com to make reservations for the workshop and get directions to the concert. David will also play the music for the Sunday 11:00 service at Unity of Gainesville (www.unityofgainesvilleFL.org).
David’s talents as a songwriting teacher/workshop leader are superb; his is the most asked-for workshop at Summersongs camps throughout the country, and this time he will be doing something very special. In addition to helping folks with their individual songwriting process, David invites the attendees to participate in a collaborative composition for Songs of Love Foundation. This foundation sends custom-recorded original songs written for seriously ill children to their families, so this group piece will be completed, recorded, and used for a most rewarding cause. Visit www.davidrothmusic.com to hear David’s own amazing music.
Hope to see you at these affirming, inspiring events!

Hi, there–I’m afraid I’m not much help as my husband is the one who set all this up for me. However, I do know that we used a WordPress template and they are very user friendly…What kind of blog do you have?
