Hi Jacob, I checked your great playing on "bubbles & ballads", so wonderful trio that I'd like to see!! BTW I'll travel Scandinavia, arrive at Copenhagen on 29 Apr and go around for several days. But I'm afraid can't fit my travel into your gig schedule...until next time maybe. ucci
Tack Jacob för att du nämner mig i OJ. Nu kan jag lugnt dra mig tillbaka. Lagt ut min flygel på blocket. Hälsning från Vasa med Aagergaard, Ramsböl o Kjellberg. Hörde lite i Nilento på din senaste skiva, lät jättefin, inspirerande, Lars
