Hello out there! We've had another great, great week on the road.

We had a wonderful time at Eastern Kentucky University (read about that show here). Kent Stage also treated us kindly, and we even got to have dinner with our friend Todd Kwait. His film, Chasin' Gus Ghost, will be out on DVD soon.

Then it was off to the State Theatre, a beautiful place in State College, PA ... and then three sold out shows -- two at the Ark in Ann Arbor, MI and one in Chicago! To read a review of the first night in Ann Arbor, click here.

NEWS AND NOTEWORTHY
Another noteworthy event -- we got to meet and interview with Dena Epstein, author of Sinful Tunes and Spirituals, the first book to recognize the banjo as an African- derived instrument. Dena is 93-years-young and was in great spirits when we talked to her.

And last but not least, our co-manager, Dolphus Ramseur of Ramseur Records, was recently featured on The State of Things. He discussed music, his company, how he got started and more. It's an interesting listen and can be found here.
