It's been quite a year so far. This is a year of milestones for myself and my family. First off, this June it will have been 50 years since I set out to make a living as a performer way back in the folk clubs of Chicago. I'll be celebrating that anniversary for my mostly annual Chicagoland show in Des Plaines, Illinois on Saturday, November 22nd, the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Mark your calendars for that one, because I think it will one for the ages. Also this year, my wife and I will be celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary in November. Yikes! Good thing we got married when we were two. And if that's not enough, our first grandson is getting married in June.
As Judy Collins once sang, Who Knows Where the Time Goes?
There's a VERY SPECIAL EVENT coming up on Sunday, June 22nd. As many of you know, I've been writing fiction for a long time, and just finished the audiobook for Calek's Tale Book Three, which should be up soon on Audible, Google Play, Spotify, and lots of other places. But before I wrote those books, I had over 50 stories published in various places around the world. Over ten of those stories were performed as staged readingS for One Night Stand Theater in Aurora, Colorado. Every few years, they do a whole evening of stories by one writer. This year, I was chosen for that honor and can't wait. They will be doing 5 of my tales, running the gamut from humorous, light horror, and sentiment. Some of my favorite Colorado actors will be doing them and my wife and I will be in the audience, with me coming up afterwords for questions and comments. My brother Don, who is a playwright, helped me adapt two of the stories as actual plays, so that will be something new and exciting for me. I hope you can make it. Click on the link below for tickets through One Night Stand Theater!
I'll be doing my 20th summer of shows at Lake Of the Ozarks, beginning on Tuesday, June 3rd (note the change in opening night to one day later, to allow me to attend my grandson's wedding!) I love playing there, and just like last year, I'm doing 7 weeks at Shady Gator's and Nautifish. All the dates are in the schedule on this page above. I hope to see lots of you. For those of you that live further away, The Lake is worth a road trip!
AND FINALLY,
THE
BUCKSNORT SALOON IS RETURNING THIS SUMMER!
So
many people in Colorado have been asking when I'm going to do more
club shows locally so they can come and see my show. I'm at the stage
in my life and career where I'm really picky about where I perform,
and there just wasn't a place I was excited to play. That place was
always the Bucksnort, which went out of business several years ago.
But new owners have been busily spiffing the place up and getting it
up to code for the county (A LONG , expensive, and time-consuming
process). But it's almost completed, and I've been informed that I
should get to play there this summer after they re-open, most likely
in August after I'm home from Missouri. So STAY TUNED!!
***
My
Calek books continue to do well. I continue to have high hopes for
these stories be because the comments have been great. The response
has been terrific, and more and more books are out there in the
world. Stay tuned!

books, click on the cover picture.
And
as always, check out my “Wayne Faust Best Videos”
playlist on YouTube. Along with the recently posted Jerry Williams
video, there's lots more good stuff. As the woman from Wild Spirit
Lodge in Guffey, Colorado said, they go from hilarious to heartfelt.
