Hey all!

Well, here we are, near the end of another year! 2003 has
been a lot of fun and very memorable, with many changes, one
of which is I got married in September and instantly acquired
a family of 3 girls and a wife (the estrogen level in my house
is pretty high ;^)! There have also been digressions in my
body because of my multiple sclerosis problems over the last
year, causing this to quite possibly be one of the last gigs
I schedule for me to play... I will still be playing when I
can, but more in social situations than gigs (I have only
scheduled one benefit gig for 2004 in San Antonio in March to
benefit the MS Society). Because of that, I have talked with
my friends Tom Noe and Linda Silas about sharing this show
with me due to the fact it's getting harder for me to play
more than 2 songs in a row without rest. So, the three of
us old friends will be playing in the round this Saturday,
which is by far my favorite method of performing... it's
wonderful to be able to feed off of other performer's
energies/songs during a show!

Anyway, I hope to see many of you folks this Saturday, then
down the road...

--------------

December 6 - My third show at Gloria Dei Nights! Coffeehouse
in the last three years will be a special event in that Tom
Noe and Linda Silas will be sharing the stage with me in the
round! I have always loved this room and the folks that come
to and run this house, and it will be even more special this
year because of Tom and Linda's participation!!

We have worked out a couple of great sets, including about
seven or so Dave Carter covers, and I know we'll be doing at
least two Harry Chapin tunes together (for sure "Mr Tanner")!
I hope you all can come out, this will be a fun night all the
way around...

There is a $5 charge at the door, and Ray Dodd has been
recording shows there, so, hopefully we'll get a nice live
recording from this show!!

I'm planning this show to be a semi-tribute to many of my
favorite songwriters and I plan to play covers of some of
my favorites of theirs, and I am dedicating this performance
to some of our recently fallen friends, Jim Ross, Kirk Edens,
and Dave Carter and some not so recent, and I'll play a couple
of my own, too (including the highly requested turtle song, "Sheldon and
Shirley"! :)

Also, there will be gifts (my holiday spirit! :)... for every
person coming through the door this night, no one leaves empty
handed... come out and see!!
