Hi people, I hope you are enjoying your summer. I've been having a blast.
Highlights from last week include opening up for and playing with Adam Gussow and Alan Gross of the Blues Doctors at one of my all time favorite clubs, The Turning Point in Piermont NY. The crowd was very responsive!! Thanks people!
Joe Ham, Dave Hofstra and I played Brian's Backyard BBQ in Middletown NY last night. The sound there is outstanding. My newly repaired amp sounded awesome in that room. Unfortunately the crowd was light because a local bridge is blocked due to damages from Hurricane Sandy forcing alot of their customers to take a lengthy detour of winding back roads. Too bad, we were rocking last night!! The bridge should be back in order in September.
