"Great" doesn't begin to cover it, D. Amonkie is a real sweatheart! I always love being able to get out and perform, but getting to hang with Amonkie made the event truly special!

BTW: pardon the graininess of the first pic... shot with my (dumb)phone. The rest were by a pro. The flaws in those are the inherent to the subject matter

Our dance card through the summer is pretty full. We're gonna do a bit of studio work through May. June is a trip through Minnesota, Wisconsin and, hopefully, back to Chicago, plus a couple of outdoor festivals here in Michigan. July starts with more festivals and ends with 10 days in England... London, Essex and a few dates in the south.

Sounds glamorous eh? Still paying the bills with 40-50 hours a week selling auto parts. (sigh)

there's a bumper sticker out there--i'm sure everyone who cares either has it or knows about it---it says: real musicians have day jobs.

when the revolution comes, we'll fix that.

Hope we can do it again soon! Maybe when it's a bit warmer, drier and the trains are running...
I had a great time! You are a wonderful host(ess)!
