Battle of the grizzleds — starting next week

Not to mention that I spent half of yesterday trying to remember Moss Hart’s name.

Big town marquee on big (2k cap) theater, with tribute band. Not only haven’t I heard of the band, I also haven’t heard of the band being paid tribute. (It’s called Sublime, and don’t tell me all about it.) The dying process yields ceaseless amusements!

I’m working at One Longfellow/Portland with Patty Larkin in a couple hours in case you’re nearby and just getting word. End of the affair, as G Greene said, and it’s been great, and see you in May.

One thing I love is The Roches.

Tonight we're playing at Levon Helm Studios, and since I've never been there and totally buy into the whole Woodstock/Levon/Big Pink mythos I'm driving there fast

Tonight at Rex Theater in Manchester it’s the great Patty Larkin and me. If you’re sick & tired it may relieve you somewhat.

Me n Kirchen in Hagerstown MD tonight

Looking forward to song-singing at Shea Theater with Bill Kirchen tonight

It’s me n Bill Kirchen tonight at Outpost in the Burbs in Montclair NJ and all creeds are welcome but haters

Surveying faces in airport. 8 in 10 express bearing up under stress and/or misery. The shitty job, drunken headache, time crunch, crying baby. 9th guy wears a knowing smirk, like the whole thing is some ironic fucking puppet show. Go to hell, guy. Let’s aspire to be person 10.

From advance sales it looks like Darrell Scott and I are headed for some love in Austin. End of the run, start of the sun. See you at 04 Center

Just catching up with the new Beyoncé record. Happy ears, happy heart.

I’m working tonight with the great-souled Darrell Scott at Sam's Burger Joint in San Antonio. Come to the merchandise table after and needle his wife about her confusion of percentages and integers. An inside joke but still.

I’m at the The Kessler Theater in Dallas tonight opening (my mouth, principally) for Darrell Scott. Come if you really feel like it.

I’ll be playing a/k/a working tomorrow Thursday at The Heights Theater in Houston, supporting the unusually skilled Darrell Scott. If you can’t beat them support them.

Hear ye hear ye, I'll be dropping by the Maui Sugar Mill in Tarzana on Wednesday to play a guest set alongside my pal Rick Shea and his fine group. Starts 8:30p.

Can’t quite believe my typing hand but: currently absorbed in the music of the Steve Miller Band. The affectless singing turned me off back when but the overall skill is drawing me now. A lot depends on minuscule vocal doodads, playful little embellishments that are written in.
