Ok, here’s the short version as to why I am driving 6000+ miles to play a solo show in a small beautiful little town on the outskirts of where I was born; Youngstown, Ohio. I have only recently discovered that I have a daughter! Yes, it’s true, I am a father AND a grandfather! Holy smokes…after some time, I’m still wrapping my head around it all! My daughter has been wanting to hear me play, yet can’t pull away from her busy schedule to travel, so she procured a gig for me near her home, at Lincoln Plaza, in Salem, Ohio! I have now been living on Camano Island, in Washington state longer than I had lived in my hometown, and haven’t played in Ohio in decades. Looking forward to it! This is a solo show, open to the public, and free! See you there! (Keeping my ears open for any pickup gigs to be had on the way back, from Aug 20th to Aug 30, and possibly beyond. Can be available to play in OH, PA, IN, MI, IL, WI, MN, SD, ND, WY, MT ID and WA through Labor Day. Any leads? call - 360-547-9196)
