Hey there,
HAPPY BELATED MOTHER'S DAY to you all !
Jubal and I made our first trek, safe and sound - at least I think we are sound after 11 days on the road ( MD, NJ & NYC). It was a fantastic time, and I look forward to telling you lots of great stories, and about some of the fun folks we met. I am also going to try and have my photos back by our performance on Friday night, so come on and check them out.
That's right . . . . this is really our only show for May & June in the area. We will be doing a couple short festival type shows, but this will be an extended performance at the . . . .
SIX STRING CAFE & MUSIC HALL -
"The Six String features singer-songwriters from all over the country as well as local and regional performers. The setting is casual and the music is acoustic.
The menu is light, personal pizzas, pastries, fruit and veggie plates, and meat and cheese plates for the wine and beer lover.
And The Six String is smoke free
Going to The Six String is like sitting in your den listening to some great acoustic music. So sit back, relax, and enjoy good music and good times."
May 18th, 2001 STARTING at 9:00 pm
$5. cover
I am really hoping to make an impression on the owner of the Six String Cafe so he will consider us in the future when he brings in National touring artists, and needs an opener. Please come out if you get a chance and support a wonderful new venue, and we will catch you up on all the adventures we had in NYC, MD & NJ. I have several new accents and was able to throw my southern one around pretty well.
Thanks for your continued support!

I recently saw this article and thought it worth sharing since we all are users of the internet.
Rampant Rudeness on the Internet: What Would "Miss Manners" Say? By Merle (
Here are the 'Top 10 Do's and Don'ts' for online
communication:
1) Don't reply to someone in all caps; it's equivalent to screaming at them.
2) If you receive a newsletter and can't figure out how to unsubscribe, before threatening to sue or reporting the publisher for Spam, politely ask the publisher to be removed. Any ezine publisher worth his salt will be happy to oblige. We really don't want to hold you captive.
3) Try to reply to all of your email messages within 48 hours. If not, many people get annoyed and will think you're avoiding them.
4) If you publish an ezine make sure you place subscribe and unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of every issue.
5) Don't use foul language in an email; that will get you nowhere. If you're upset about something, please state the problem clearly along with how you'd like to see the issue resolved.
6) If you visit a website and it's not to your liking, don't fire off a nasty email stating what a loser the site owner must be. Remember what your Mom use to say "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all."
7) Make sure every page of your website contains an email address to contact you. Please don't make me fill out a long form just to ask you a simple question.
8) When replying to an email, keep the original message intact so the person you're replying to knows what you're talking about. Personally I receive over 300 messages a day, so I need
to see your message in context -- otherwise, I may not understand it.
9) If you buy or sell products/services online, make sure you're using an online payment service like PayPal.com in order to move money around quickly. Don't make snail mail your only payment option.
10) Pay your bills in a timely fashion. If you owe someone money online don't make them send out 10 emails telling you your payment is overdue. Pay promptly.
So there you have it; my Top 10 rules for being more polite and less rude online. If you incorporate these tips into your daily Internet dealings you'll find the Net a little warmer and a friendlier place to be.
There's enough road rage in the world, so when traveling the information highway please remember that we're all human. Your computer is just a tool used to communicate with others.
Please be KIND to them!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well. with that said, this email is long enough. I will let you go and have a wonderful day. I hope to see you on Friday, and please bring a friend or two. That can be your early birthday present to me ( I am a Gemini, remember. . . .)
I hope you continue to have music in your soul, and wings on your feet. . . . Sing on!
