Just a quick note as I’ve gotten complaints for not updating this page more frequently… sometimes it just comes down to a choice between sitting  at the keyboard or standing at the washing machine  and when your just back from or heading out for a week on the road, the washing machine makes a pretty convincing case!  

I had a wonderful time last night at Steel City. In my opinion, it is the warmest most artist-friendly place we have in the Delaware Valley and I’m really thankful for it. What a nice cross section of friends and fans showed up. All ages, from the high school kids to grandparents. The time just goes so fast on that stage. I don’t even remember what I sang or talked about. Just that I felt very good inside when I walked out into the snow at midnight… 

Long day tomorrow. I catch a 10AM flight to Memphis. Arrive mid -afternoon and hang out til 10 PM when I catch the Amtrak red-eye north to Carbondale, IL.  Roll in the there at 3:30AM to (hopefully) find a cab to take me 30 minutes to my motel and get a nap before boarding Arlo’s tour bus for the venue load-in and sound check…
 

Looks like I picked the right week not to give up caffeine!

 I’m looking forward to this tour. To the trains. To the music and the people. And to my visit in New Orleans where,  hopefully I’ll find some hopeful things to report when I write on this page next time… Of course that will be after I get all that laundry done!
