Holy cow y'all!  I think Live Music in the USA is back, and the old saying is Sooooo true:

"Ya don't know what you've got until it's gone!"

For musicians, man, has the last couple of years sucked ... big time! Getting out and making music with other humans is the zenith of what our world is all about.  Take THAT away and we all turn into sad blobs with eyes.  Okay, maybe I'm being a little overly dramatic, but not THAT much so!

But in the last few weeks (basically June through July 4th) I've played 12 live gigs, and boy does it feel freaking AWESOME!!!!!  So, folks, if you are not already, go out and celebrate this great country by getting some musical buddies together and make some darn music!

What have I been doing the last few weekends?  Reminding myself why I'm still on this darn planet ... and it's better than any drug!  I've been making music ... LIVE and IN-PERSON to real honest to goodness crowds.  Yee-Haw, and ...

Happy birthday America.
