Hey all,

Back in Amsterdam after a week and a half in NYC.
Had some great BBQ with family on L.I., and spent some time with a few old friends.
Wish I'd had a chance to see more folks and hear more music, but you never have as much time as you think you have to do all ya want, do ya?
Funny thing is, it poured almost the whole time I was in New York, and over here in rainy windmill country, it's sunny and clear.
I think the weather's mixed up! Lots more news soon, including a massive fall tour.
For those of you in northern Italy and Switzerland next month, stop by a show or two:
