Got Them Ol' Computer Blues

After the Holidays and the second trip to Denmark, my computer got sick and died. So let's review for a minute. I found photos of Teresa James visit to Portland at "Duffs Garage" back in December. This turned out to be even more fun than I could hope. Besides having Teresa sing the duet "I Can't Stop" from our new recording, we sang some ol' nuggets, "Crying Time", "Drinkin' On The Weekend", "Nothing You Can Say" etc... I think the highlight of the "Janefest" was Teresa's take on "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree"!! I promise we'll bring Teresa back when the new CD "Doing What It Takes" is released.

Denmark was a one gig this time! "Shaky Ground" held their 30th anniversary January 14, 2012. It was wonderful to hear all the people they've backed over the years and to be invited to play and be involved in their future plans. I was the only person at this event that did not speak Danish. I think it's time for "Rosettastone". The fella on the plane going Denmark was from India and spoke seven languages. On the way home I sat next to a woman from Russia that spoke at least five. Both were half my age. What I learned is... I have much to learn!
