Hey Everyone!

Things have been in a constant state of change for the past 2 months.
With everything going on, I haven't been able to send out updates. But
things are FINALLY starting to slow down just enough so I can catch my
breath! Yay! So you're all probably asking youself, did he die?
What's been happening? How was the Charlie Concert? Etc. etc. Well,
I am here to answer all those questions (and if I miss any, just lemme
know ;-). So here goes nothing:

I am sad to report that my temporary term as fiddler for the Ciara
Lynn band has come to an end. As you all know, I was filling in for
the previous fiddler, Linda, who was out on medical leave. Thankfully
she's healthier now and able to endure the demands of playing in a
band. So, I'd like to wish Linda the best of luck and thank everyone
at Ciara Lynn Music for the memories.

The Charlie Daniels Concert: 1 word..... WOW! 2 shows in the pouring
rain and thousands of people stayed for the entire show! Now that was
just amazing! With so many people asking to see a video of the
concert, I finally decided to put a clip of it on my site. Yes you
read correctly, there is now a video clip of me & Charlie dueling back
and forth under the GALLERY section on the website. If you can
correctly guess the song, you win.... um..... a cookie! :-P

A better, more detailed account of the concert will be sent out
shortly by my roadie Katie. From now on she will be helping me by
sending out emails to the mailing list notifying you guys of upcoming
shows and such. Don't worry, I will still be sending out emails to you
guys.

In other music related news, I will be heading into the studio in 2
weeks with my good friend Dan Terry. He's putting together a new album
and had asked me if I would kindly lend my musical talent to the
project. I look to have some great stories and great music come out of
this experience so I will keep you guys posted.

So until next time.... stay safe, don't take candy from strangers, and
have a very HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
