I am now listing upcoming concerts on a separate page called Concerts. Colorado On Halloween morning, I flew out to Denver, Colorado for the Huntington’s Study Group Conference in Denver.

New song: It just depends
This song, “It all depends” goes with my last post about the two-year anniversary. I had actually intended to record a video at the lighthouse but with the drizzle, I gave up on that idea.

I had gone to the open… Read more →

At the Luthier’s open mic, a great local photographer, Julian Parker-Burns shot me performing. That was a good excuse to change the look of it a little. I liked… Read more →
Shouldering On
Shouldering on. My shoulder seems to be getting better, slowly. I think it is back to where it was before I stumbled at the bottom of the stairs. And crushed part of my guitar. That was actually the third time I have messed up my shoulder and rotator cuff. The first time was about 30 years ago when I slipped on the… Read more →
