The unbounded generosity of the people I am privileged to call friend is a constant source of wonder for me, and the reason I always have hope.

Curt Golden: August 2013

Because occasionally it takes more than 140 characters. Thursday, August 29, 2013. Giving credit where credit is due when you are performing blues tunes can be really tough. I’ve kind of given up saying who wrote a lot of the tunes I play, and instead refer to the artist that I learned it from. Anyone who has ever made an earnest attempt to properly credit the songs they are covering will tell you that the harder you look, the more confusing it gets. What about Willie Dixon?

Walked down to Fremont for a bit of exercise, as well as diversion. Walking more or less the route I tried to drive on my way home last night, I got to observe the aftermath of the storm. A lot of broken and downed trees. Hung out at the café to read more of the Muddy Waters bio. The result is She Moves Me. With Walter playing guitar. These t...

Because occasionally it takes more than 140 characters. Friday, November 14, 2014. Fri Nov 14 2014. First rehearsal for Undercover Blues Band in way, way too long. Lots of fun. No pressure, beyond the pressure we each of us puts on ourselves. Kept it loose and jammy, while we found our feet. Called tunes from the old repertoire, except for Don’t Go No Farther. Which I presented for the first time. It took off immediately. This is what we played. The order is my best recollection:. 8226; Wang Dang Doodle.
