Palmer Report July 22nd – 28th

We are mid way through the summer season and boy has it been a blast so far. The Cobre Valley center for the Arts has wrapped up their summer youth musical theater program, the Musicians of Globe/Miami completed the first ever music tour through the small towns in our local area and both the Globe Piranha Swim Team and the Pinal Mountain Little League represented our community with fierce competition. For a small, isolated mining community, Globe-Miami has its fair share to offer by way entertainment.

Robert & Travis

This Saturday, July 25th, the open mic at Farley’s Pub will be hosted by Robert and Travis. The music starts at 9pm and winds down by Midnight. Robert Braun has been playing music for a very long time. I know a lot of the musicians in town now have either jammed with him, been inspired by him or may have even been given some equipment by Robert. “That is just the kind of guy he is, very giving and understanding,” commented Jarod Spencer when referring to the new Epiphone Guitar he recently received from Robert. Travis is a great accompaniment to Roberts playing style. The way Travis’s fingers float across the fret board with such little effort is a show to watch in itself.
