The Road Beckons

Wow.
We have been out having fun again...The Lincoln Center Theatre in Mt. Vernon WA is a gorgeous venue in a very cool town. We got the royal treatment - like they give everyone (!) - and had a great show and a great time. The band is sounding good and the folks we meet out there keep it fascinating.

Uncle John's "Dead On The Creek" was amazing. Nice folks, beautiful rural location, excellent weather and vibes... Even our friend Peter (pictured at Right) would have been having a fantastic time if he weren't preoccupied with the Viking Invasion ... or Danish Pacification as they called it when they were busily killing my ancestors....

Now it is time for me to go teach at CRMC music camp in Colorado for a week, then we are off to the Strawberry Music Festival near Yosemite, The Palms Playhouse, the Winfield Fest in Kansas - off to record with legend Cowboy Jack Clement in Nashville -- all good stuff. I need to consolidate our photos and post more but man, the time does fly by... I don't want to become a prisoner of the Mac like David here...

This travelling around playing tons of music - I just can't tell you how I look forward to the part when we actually count off the first tune...
all the airport, load-ins, load-outs, strange meals and bad road signage, jammed-up freeways and weird bumpy toll raods fade away and I just can't get enough...
See you out there -

Don't forget to come right up and say " Fellas, Can I buy you lunch?
Do-doot-do-do-do-doot-do-doot-do
Dang me.
