Greetings:

This just in from Daniel Keebler over at Gavin's Woodpile:

Bruce Cockburn – a view from the Woodpile, is now available for purchase. I am
publishing the book online through a Print On Demand (POD) publisher called
Blurb (www.blurb.com). While this method is more expensive than the traditional
off-set printing procedure, this is the only way I could afford to make the book
available. Most of the retail price of the book goes to Blurb for printing. My
cut is minimal. I did not set out to make piles of cash off the sale of this
book, but rather to share my photos with fans of Bruce Cockburn, hoping it might
offer a slightly unique view of him at work. I think this is the first book out
there dedicated solely to Bruce.

This is a small project. There are people who might appreciate having the book
but may never find it. I have no big advertising campaign. If you want to help
spread the word about this book, I would welcome that and be most appreciative.
Consider including a link to the book as part of the signature on your emails.
If you have Twitter, My Space, Facebook, a blog, a website… a simple link to the
book at Blurb would be all that is needed.

The book is available in two options:
paperback
hardback with a dust jacket

The book is 120 pages long and is ordered from the Blurb website and mailed
directly to you. It contains photos from performances, soundchecks, a recording
session and a few other locations, between 1994 and 2008. There is a two page
introduction, a four page biography (Bruce assisted with the bio), a discography
and a few other tour-related graphics.

The fact Bruce supported me on this project means a lot to me personally, but I
also think it helps to validate the project in a broader sense. Since I started
Gavin's Woodpile in late 1993, it has been important for me to document Bruce's
work as accurately as I can. By trusting me, Bruce has helped me make that goal
a lot easier. For that I am grateful.

My big thanks go to all of you who have supported Gavin's Woodpile through the
past fifteen years. It is lifting to know you are out there.
