Last year we had a great time at an event at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Marin.  They didn't even try to convert us -- although we're afraid that our songs about drinking and general moral laxity may have corrupted at least a few of them.  Now, inexplicably, they have invited us to launch their new Joy and Justice concert series.  We'll be sharing the evening with DJ Maad Hatter, so if you're looking to dance, there should be pretty much continuous music. 

Of course, dancing works up an appetite, so chef Alexis Haynes and her Fully’z VeSoul Café food truck will be on hand serving up some mouth-watering Louisiana-inspired vittles.  And of course, man – and woman and mule – do not live by vittles alone, so the church will be turning water into wine — and beer — for those who thirst after more than righteousness.

Doors open at 6:00; the Mules kick things into high gear around 7:15.  Tickets are $18 if purchased in advance, or $20 at the door.  Proceeds go to support the Marin County Cooperation Team, which empowers Marin’s historically underserved communities.

This is our 3rd straight year at this fund-raiser for the American Cancer Society.  If we can be serious for a moment, one of our bandmates is a cancer survivor, so this is an event that is especially near and dear to our hearts.  It's also fun -- and free!  They've got food, crafters, silent auctions, games, prizes, contests, activities, speakers, massage tent, etc. The Relay for Life is at Olive School, 620 Olive Ave. in Novato.  We'd love to see you there, but if you can't make it, please consider making a donation.

The Mules are very happy to once again be a part of the Relay for Life, a fund-raiser for the American Cancer Society in Novato.  We provided the music for last year's event, had a lot of fun and helped raise over $67,000 to bring hope to cancer patients, survivors and caretakers all around the Bay Area.  Please join us at the Olive School, 620 Olive Ave. in Novato and help support this very worthwhile cause.

The Mules will be back for our 5th consecutive Wine Country Carnival.  This event is an annual fundraiser for United Cerebral Palsy of the North Bay.  We always have a great time there and each year look forward to coming back.

The Wine Country Carnival is held at the beautiful Tuscan-styled Jacuzzi Family Vineyards in Sonoma.  The event warms up with fun carnival games to test your skill and coordination, and ends with raffles and silent auctions that give you a chance to win a variety of fabulous prizes.  Your ticket includes a sit-down dinner featuring amazing cuisine by Chef Munther Massarweh of Scrumptious Occasions (the operative word being "scrumptious"), plus live swampy-tonk music by . . . you-know-who! 

The UCP of the North Bay is well known for all the unique recreational activities that they provide for children and adults with developmental disabilities. The generous support of Wine Country Carnival ticket buyers and event sponsors, as well as raffle and silent auction donors, help make these unique programs possible.  Miracle Mule is happy once again to be a part of this event supporting this very worthy cause.

Tickets are still available, but the event has limited capacity and they expect it to sell out, so order your tickets early!

The Jacuzzi Winery is at 24724 Arnold Drive (Highway 121) in Sonoma.  Come join us for a night of fun, games, prizes, fine dining . . . and dancing!

Live hula dancers, a succulent roast pig, and great swampy tonk music -- you're just never going to find a more authentic luau experience on a Wednesday night in Novato ever again.  Even better, just by enjoying an awesome dinner and a night of fun you'll be helping Lahaina fire relief.  The three Novato Rotary clubs have teamed up to sponsor the "Heart for Lahaina" fundraiser – 7 nights at 7 restaurants.  Blazers’ night is Wed Sept 20, and they will donate a percentage of the night’s receipts to the Lahaina Rotary’s Fire Relief Fund -- but only if you mention the "Heart for Lahaina" fundraiser when you place your order.  The Mules are very happy to be a part of this special evening and promise to be extra fired-up – as will the Blazers smoker -- for the festivities.  And yes, Blazers will be roasting a pig special for the occasion.  And you're definitely not going to want to miss a very special appearance by the Hale Aloha hula group. 

Now don't try to tell us you already have plans for Wednesday night -- nobody ever has plans for Wednesday nights!  And sure, it's a school night, but we'll have you on your way home, well fed and happy, by 9:00, in plenty of time to get your beauty sleep.  But if you seriously can't make it, this fund-raiser will be going on at other restaurants from Sept 18-23 (see schedule below) or donations can also be mailed to 100 Galli Dr, Ste. 5, Novato CA 94949.  Make checks payable to RCNS Foundation (Rotary Club of Novato Sunrise Foundation) and note Hearts for Lahaina in the memo line.  Include your name and address to receive a letter from the foundation for your taxes.

Blazers Smokehouse is at 7380 Redwood Blvd (actually on the frontage road on the east side of Redwood, just north of Grant) in downtown Novato.  So y’all come on out and don't forget to mention "Heart for Lahaina" when you place your order. 

Sponsored by the 3 Novato Rotary Clubs: Rotary Club of Novato Sunrise, Rotary Club of Novato, Rotary Club of Ignacio

The Relay for Life is an event to celebrate cancer survivors and care givers and to raise money for the American Cancer Society to help fund life-saving research, crucial patient care programs and more.  The Mules will be on hand to provide the musical entertainment, and you are invited to come, to get involved, and to enjoy the music (maybe even dance!)  Cancer touches all of our lives -- yes, even the Mules -- and we are very happy to be part of this very worthwhile program.  

The Relay for Life will be held at Loma Verde Elementary School, 399 Alameda De La Loma in Novato.  Come on out, enjoy your favorite swampy-tonk band and support a great cause!  But if you just can't make it Saturday you can still help by making your donation here.

Fundraiser for Marin Democrats. The Marin Democratic Party is pleased to invite you to our Ragin’ Cajun In Person Mardi Gras event, February 18th from 5:30-7:30 PM in San Rafael. We will once again enjoy the foot stomping music of Miracle Mule–live, onstage. Our keynote speaker is Congressman Jared Huffman who will present his annual “Tales of the City-DC.” For tickets or sponsorship, click here.

The Mules have played at all 3 of the previous Wine Country Carnivals, but #4 has been a long time a-comin'.  It's been rescheduled more times than we can count (of course, given the lack of fingers & toes, mules can only count to 4).  But it's finally happening this coming Saturday at the Jacuzzi Family Vineyards -- rain or shine (not that there's ever much shining going on after 6pm since Daylight Savings went away).

You will need advance tickets, but in addition to dancing to your favorite band they also include a splendid meal created by chef Munther Massarweh of Scrumptious Occasions.  And more importantly, it's all for a great cause -- the event is a fund-raiser for United Cerebral Palsy of the North Bay.  The event supports UCP recreational programs, which allow children and adults with disabilities to experience new opportunities, build self-esteem, and further their independence.  The Mules are very happy to be a part of this event once again and to support this very worthwhile cause.

Jacuzzi Family Vineyards are at 24724 Arnold Drive in Sonoma.  Advance tickets are available here.  This is our last show on the calendar for 2022, so we hope we'll see you there!
