6-29 Hurricane Patty's, Those Guys - Had an okay night playing. Some songs seemed a little uncomfortable, guess we'll start saving those for Frankie when he gets back. Other than that, it was a good time!

6-30 Dinner with Gregg Chirico and Susanne - We had "sushi and a show". Thanks you guys, what a great time! Lots of laughs, even a few for the comedy we watched (Hot Tub Time Machine).

7-1 Eclipse Recording Co - Starting to clean up the tracks and make final decisions. Should be within a few months for my new CD "Hopeless Romantic". I can't wait.

The service for Jeanie was very nice. She touched so many people in her life, the place was bursting at the seams with friends and family. She was more than special. We'll miss you, Jeanster!

Oasis, Those Guys - The gig was a madhouse! We weren't playing up to par, but I don't think it even mattered!

7-3 The Village Inn and Pub @ St. Simons Inland, GA, NorthStar - What a great place. It's been a lot of years since I played on St. Simons. Seems like it was Coconut Willie's with Those Guys. Anyway, had a great gig. Jackie was real nice. Good crowd. Played good! We worked up a few new tunes, 2 covers and another song I wrote "Get Back in the Race" to put on our new NorthStar CD, Keepin' in Real. We never played them at the gig but a least we got them started. Ed will be adding tracks on Thursday at Eclipse. It was a good trip, looking forward to Capt. Stan's!

7-4 Finnegan's Wake - It was a great afternoon! It was good to see all the support we got from all our friends! Thanks!

In closing, it's been a a great week! Got some things done in the studio for my next CD. Did a NorthStar gig and worked up some new tunes with my brother. Got to hang out with Gregg and Susanne. Got to play with the band. I'm looking forward to what the future brings! "Keepin' It Real"
