Shhh! I'm trying to think...
Dylan, Prine, Goodman...
I know, I know… I could get jobs and make money if I would play more mainline stuff. But I just can’t help myself. A couple of hours of John Prine and Steve Goodman played in the living room is just more fun than a paycheck. On the other hand, if you need someone to do some acoustic folk, give a holler. I’d love to do Cancer and Veteran’s charity shows for free.

Random Musings

Captchas  I grew up in the 60's  70's, so these look completely normal to me. Flevoland  It's not another word for Florida.  It's a province of the Netherlands! Barre Chords  are not the on...

Transpose button? (or I want my money back!!!)

Recently, someone was preaching at me on how to play keyboard.  He talked about how his band had to change the key of a song to make it more 'singable.'  Just hit the transpose button, he to...
