May 13th, Carpetbaggers DAVE, Sue, Tony and Woody at the Corner Bar - Well, it was another crazy night. Frankie was under the weather so Woody Pernell joined us for the evening, he did a great job. We had George Brackens sit in with us on violin, we played Moon River, he did a great job. We would like to thank Sam, Don, Dino and George who are musicians in town that support Carpetbagger's music. We hope Frankie feels better, you were missed.

May 14th, Bagan and Company - Dan and I finished "Midnight Blue", next week we will try to complete "Live And A Little Touched" I can't wait!

May 15th, Carpetbaggers DAVE, Sue, Tony and Woody Pernell at The St. Augustine Fish House and Oyster Co. - Once again Woody did a great job! Brandon came out and helped Woody tweak his sounds and it was good. We missed Frankie and he has told me he's looking forward to getting back to work next week. Tony and Sue as always kicked butt. We did our second run on "The Devil Went Down To Georgia",  it went a lot better. See you at The St. Augustine Fish House and Oyster Co. in a couple months. Thanks Aden, Yvonne and staff.

We starting to mix "Back Again", "YAY" I am excited about our second Carpetbagger's release. It's all in Jim's hands now with maybe with me chiming in every now and then.
