Work It

Doing a double today - as I did last Sunday. This week it is with Tony DePaulo at a catering joint in the Bronx, Marina del Rey, and tonight back on the Bateaux.

Last night was the first night with Nate Radley on guitar. He sounded really nice. Dave Stryker did one a few weeks back which was a gas.

Gotta hit it...

New York, Airplanes

Flew back home from the great Mid-West Tuesday. It had turned a little chilly in KC on Monday, with rain on the way (cooler low-pressure front moving in to supplant the warm/high status quo) and so when I touched down in Newark to a gorgeous sunset/warm temps, I knew the changes were coming.

The next day was the day Corey Lidle/Stanger flew the small plane into the apt bldg on E 72nd. New York has seen it all.

This place is just able to absorb whatever crazy shit goes down. It is always changing and yet somehow always New York.


I had a great visit in KC. Way better than I had expected or even hoped.

I will catch up more.

I have a double today.

Playing up at the Arrowwood today with Dave Oliver and back on the boat tonight.

Kansas City

Happy to be writing from KC where I'm hangin' for a couple of days to attend my 20 year High School reunion and see my bro' Kurt and niece Rachel.

Beautiful day today to touchdown in the Midwest. This is a great time of year to travel and the bright day did not disappoint. I miss this sky. This sky has long ago disappeared in NY, if it ever existed at all. Too many people competing for that limited strip of sky... If you've got the dough, you can buy a nice slice of it. Until the next guy, with more dough, comes along and builds 5 stories higher and to the west/east.

I've been back here only twice in the last ten years so it is definitely an overdue trip.

It's been a flurry of activity for me in NY over the last few weeks so its nice to have a little downtime, get outta town.
