I now finally have a copy of "Courage", and it doesn't seem to want to find it's way out of my cd player. If we ever do the "covers of each other's songs" project, I would have to say that "...Courage that might be in it" would be my first choice.
Good to hear from you. I'm going home to Pgh. in a week. I'm helping Artie empty out our Dad's house 'cause it's for sale. There's 40 years of accumulated crap in that house! There's a song title for you..."40 Years of Accumulated Crap". Hope you're well.

Hi Steve,
I'm sorry I'll miss your set at the Just Plain Folks gathering at the White Crow. I'm going to be in East Lansing. It looks like it's going to be a great event, I hope things go well.
Steve, thanks for the Friend Request. It was nice meeting you last week. I really like your songs, and that new guitar is rather attractive. I look forward to seeing/hearing you more. Best, Bobby
Steve -- thanks for finding me here in cyberspace!
I was going to stop by and leave a quick comment, but I landed up listening to each of your songs here in its entirety. I remember them all from our wonderful Songwriters Retreat weekend; I listened to your CD on the drive home, and I'm sorry it's taken me this long to say how much I enjoyed it. I'm glad your "on ice" song is posted here: I was a amazed you could write something so powerful, in one weekend, from that quirky little assignment you were given!
I really like your songs, esp. the lyrics -- right up my alley. Nice to "see" you again.
Hey Steve,
How are you?!
Do me a favor and tell your son that it was cool talkin' to him after the Guns N Roses concert this past November; Cool kid,yo.
Hope you're doing well yourself,sir!
Take care,
dan
