THIS BLOG IS LONG OVERDUE...HERE'S WHAT'S HAPPENING

Sorry for the long blog absence, but it's been a very busy summer.  The new CD is out and getting great reviews from all of you.  I've been performing constantly, whether it be my regular shows or the many open mics I've been attending.  I've even starting writing again...songs for the next album?  Hey, when you're on a creative high, you've gotta go with it!

Soon we will bring back the ever so popular "Rough Cut" video performance series.  Keep checking the main page often for that, plus other updates like the gig schedule, new songs, and new pics - which are up now.

Finally, I'd like to thank all the musicians that have joined me on stage over the summer.  Especially Arielle Strauss (who you can see in my latest profile pic).  She's been doing a great job on percussion and can be seen (and heard) at many of my shows.  Other notables are former RHBC bandmates Ken Masson, Karen Cassidy, and Steve Hackett.  Also making surprise appearances have been Eric Ginsberg, Keith McCarthy, AJ Stone, Michael Brett, Alex Biese, Rich Wolsten, Lance Green aka Sonuva, Vinny & EJ of The Backbeat, Anton Daub, Laurie Erlenmeyer, Sibling Rivalry, Amy Malkoff, and of course my monthly shows with Gil Velazquez.  As you see, it's a big list.  I hope I didn't forget anyone.  You can check out all of these musicians on their MySpace profiles - they're all on my friend list.

Of course, this near end of summer blog would not be complete if I didn't thank all of you for supporting my musical endeavors.  I really appreciate it.  Hope to see you all in the fall as well.
