The following video is from my 4th of July performance at Caterina Winery in Spokane, WA. Many thanks to Dave Hannon for writing the lyrics and providing his vocals! Also, a huge thanks to Dot for capturing this moment. The song is called "Waiting Her Turn".
If you would like to skip the inbetween song banter and my long-winded description of the song, the actual music starts about 2 minutes and 30 seconds in.

Cruisin' by for a listen and a hello! Very much looking forward to the 6th, and I'm pretty sure June 7th at Starbucks is a go! We'd most likely start the show at 6p.m. and go until 8p.m. I'll get you all the details here very soon.
I can't believe (as I'm sure you can't believe as well) that it'll be 10 years for you! That's quite the accomplishment, my friend! To me, it's a testiment to your determination and will, both of which are iron-clad.
I would be honored to join you at Cafe Luna on June 6th! Whatever you'd like me to participate on would be awesome and the honest truth is I love just being in the audience when you're playing!
As far as Starbucks that Sunday goes ... I don't see a problem with it at all, but let me double check with my store manager just to be safe. She and I are meeting tomorrow afternoon, so I'll let you know very soon about that show.
Of course I'd love to be part of the bigger show that you're intending to put on later this year! Just a warning, though, I will be out on three tours this summer/fall. I'll get you those dates very soon here (actually, I'm going to post them in a blog later on today).
Thanks again for your camaraderie and inspiration, Jonathan!
