Vote for Patrick, Vote for Fresno!
I entered my self in the Yahoo! talent show, if you copy and past this link below , you'll be taken to the home page, you'll see me right away under "faves" sportin' my "I love Fresno" t shirt. I entered the contest for fun, but when I woke up this morning I realized my view count had skyrocketed and couldn't figure out why....until I realized I was chosen as one of the favorite videos. Even cooler is this was a video from my show at Fulton Plaza Thursdays, and I'm sporting a cool "I love Fresno" shirt..., so vote for me, vote for the fresno music scene, and vote for loving fresno! ha
Thanks Patrick Contreras
p.s. If I need to move this thred, let me know..I wasn't sure where to post.

Jay Rosette Project freakin ROCKS
Just saw the J.R. Project this weekend (along with the Super Lucky Catz) down at The Gig and was pretty impressed. The crowd was lovin it too......
Lotsa people on stage....lotsa PROFESSIONAL musicians doing their thing in perfect balance...plus I'm sure there'll be some improv from Patrick.
Freakin' rOcKin!
Don't worry I'm playing at Starline this weekend
I just got a call from Jay rossette last night about playing this Saturday. His Show will go on after mine. I'm going to play a mix of rock, flamenco, funk, jazz, blues, classical, and a little hip hop..I'm bringing with me a full band....Guitar, Drums, Congas, Persian and arabic percussion, Bass, Keyboards, A flamenco guitarist, and of course myself on violin...the show starts at 9:30pm at the Starline and cover charge is 7 dollars...I'll do my set first..then the Jay Rosette Project will play his set..he's a great guitarist who's kinda like a modern Santana..if i had to describe.

Hey JJ,
Hey JJ,
Thanks for voting, yes I am planning to perform in Fresno again. I'm currently planning next year. So far on tap, I'm working on a flamenco show complete with dancers. I'm bringing a cuban quintet from San Francisco to play with me. I'm working on a composition to incorporate Modern Dance, A local artist, and my music. As for my own project, I'll be pretty much focusing on two types this year. I'm already booking gigs and concerts for my rock, funk, expiremental, latin group. But I am currently writing and arranging music for a classical crossover style project, nothing to poppy..just quality in the vein of Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban, Lucia Micarelli, yo yo ma..on the violin of course....etc etc...I know I probably overanswered your question..sorry about that...i talk too much
