I've been likened to Daddy Cool and the Poole Brothers, lots of Texas singer songwriters, 1940's crooners, all 1960's folkies,the Mills Brother (your choice), Roger Miller, Billy Ross, Ian and Sylvia (minus Sylvia), Tom Paxton, Tim Hardin and the Lithuanian Giant of the Plywood Calliope, 'Sobargo Fitch.'
I'm a regular guy with too many irregularities to mention here. I like music, family, my girlfriend, my musical brethren and sistren (?) and music, music, music. Music is the language that bridges all divides and is therefore the language of hope. Bless us all. Amen.

Hey there...Rick. Joel here on the festival sight. Be careful you will make a mess on your cloths 'wetting yourself' from excitement about our 4th...lol! Hope to see you soon! Joel
Not only did your comments warm my heart to the peak of explosion, (as well as the fact that you're in Oklahoma, where I spent many a summer in Spencer, visiting family an' playing in red dirt), but your music is just gorgeous... Wow. So happy to read an' listen to you. Chicken pot pie it is, (I. Love. Truly.), an' please, continue your taste for the sins, (cheese, vinegar). You love what you love. I hug you through this screen, dear friend...
Hello Rick , Thank You for accepting my add, please drop in on my page any time, let me know what you think of my music if you want to... I hope all is well and you have a great week! Anthony
Yup - never a dull moment around here! The ash fall so far hasn't hit Anchorage or the area where I live. But I expect it's just a matter of time if it continues to erupt like it did last time. The big thing is that planes can't fly through ash clouds, it makes the jet engines shut down since ash is made up of basically tiny glass particles! Good stuff.
It was great to meet you! I really appreciate the compliments on my guitar playing. That was very nice of you.
You've got some good stuff on your player. I especially like the vocals on "The Things We Left Behind." They flow so playfully, yet the song is so sad.
Hopalong Cassidy and Root Beer Willie was talkin' about you last night and said you're smellin' pretty ripe. Maybe that's why everyone abandoned you and took up pokin' needles in beaver carcasses as a hobby.
These Days Sex is hilarious. I'll make sure mom hears it. I think she and Eric will both get a kick out of it too! Gulf Breeze - LOVE IT. I put it on my profile. Keep up the good work!
While it might be better to be tipsy, my profile picture has in fact just changed a lot! :) I get bored with them easily....hope you are doing well! :)
I really dig the songs you've got on here! Rebecca added one to her profile I think. Very cool. We've got a talented family! And, I have to say - a mighty fine looking one to boot. Love ya.
