Greetings from Glade Creek...
Yep... we're still in the mountains of western North Carolina waitin' to sell our log home (Quiet seclusion, but convenient location...check out my blog...)
I'll be at a barbecue in Black Mountain, NC this saturday... & at "Taste Of Black Mountain" on Sept. 11... & at The Encouraging Cup Coffeehouse in Arden, NC on Sept. 19.
I'll be returning to The Biltmore Estate Winery on September 20 & 27, October 11 & 18, November 8, December 13 & 21. This will mark the end of my 11th season at The Biltmore Estate. Thanks to Hannah & Patricia in Special Projects and to Bruce & the staff at the Winery for everything you do to make The Biltmore Estate one of America's premier tourist attractions.
I will be performing in my hometown, Alton, IL, on October 24 & 25 at Thymes Past on State Street in the historic Krug House. I'm looking forward to seeing old friends again... & making some new acquaintances with some of St. Louis' abundance of talented musicians.
Tucked in & around these "payin' gigs" are a steady supply of performances at assisted care facilities, adult day services, nursing homes & prisons. I strongly urge all musicians to share your time and your talents by performing for similar venues. You'll be blessed more than you can believe.

keep smilin', keep a joyous song in your heart,
& find a way to leave the world better than when ya got here...

Bullet Groove..
