I play music 'cause it makes me feel good. It might sound simple, but it's true.
I've had a pretty good run, so far. Played with some good bands and some great songwriters like Sheryl Crow, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Morgan Heritage, Dan Zanes, G.E. Smith, Days of the New, The Weepies and many others.
From time to time, I play with a lot of great musicians/songwriters like: Brendan James, Mike Harvey, Laura Berman, Greg Tannen, Marc Von Em, Julia Brown, Tina Sugandh, Annie Keating, and a bunch of other talented folks...
Hi, Malcolm Sorry I haven't been by in awhile. I have been really busy this summer. But I just wanted to stop by to wish you an illuminating week... ~kiss, kiss~ Selene
I hope you arrived home safely after all of the cancellations. We all miss you, and have requested that you develop a book-on-tape series of "Malcolm Gold Tells Wackadoo Jew Jokes"...for the long carrides.
