Your Friends Jon, Gee, Trip & Peter THE SECOND FIDDLES
I really wanted to go to your gig. But my brain was hijacked by a bunch of crazed yogies and I was forced to do hot yoga Wednesday night. And I'm still regretting it. Hope you're happy. If I had gone to your gig, I wouldn't be crippled two days later. Call it karma.
Hi Ken - love that harmonica playing. Sorry I missed you last week in Toronto - I had a commitment I just couldn't shirk, though I tried! Hope we get to play together again when I'm next in NYC and make sure and let me know if you're back in Toronto!

You have got to be the only songwriter I know who's done an ode to Molly Ivins AND a harmonica-based work of strangle disco. How could I not include you in the Subterranean Fawmsick Blues, Part I?
Hey Ken! Thanks for the note. I actually live in Portland Maine now but if you're close enough to reach portsmouth, you're close enough to reach the other port. i very much like what you're doing as well. congrats on FAWM and keep it up. Let me know if you're ever in the area. xoxo take care.
