    Mick,
    It's been way too long.

    I lost my Dad on Sat. April 4.

    Held his hand until the very end.

    I'm doing OK as can be.

    Got that 19 year coin!
    Peace Within.

    Mick,

    Just thought you'd like to know I posted a rough mix of Black & Blond playing "Shapes Of Things" (live at FitzGerald's at last February's Party/Jam) on my MySpace page.


    And it's being listened to by god knows what kinds of people I have befriended.


    Comin' up this time? It's back to BobDog on the 21st.
