<p>Hi friends,  Had to go to Tn. for 3 months to earn a living, but I'm back home now and preparing to go back in to the Studio to complete my latest project, which I began this last summer. Working title is "They Call Me Blue."  I will be recording up in the Provo/Orem area this time with my good friend Ryan Tilby, and some other special guests, and I hope to have a new CD available in the next few months
  Hope to see you or hear from you soon. Don't feel shy about leaving me a message in my guestbook,…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blue-s-journal/blog/6180622/back-from-tennessee">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>3 of my songs (mekong Delta, goin fishin &amp; train to catch this mornin) were entered and selected as "Honorable Mention" winners, in the Rockygrass Folk and Bluegrass Festival held at Lyons Colorado, in late August. This is quite an honor for me as there were over 900 entries from all over the world. I did much better in the Founder's Festival in July, but the ROCKYGRASS FESTIVAL is 10 times bigger, so to place in the top 20 is a great honor with so many entries.</p>

<p>Mountain Town Stages in Park City chose "Mekong Delta" as the first tune on their "Local Wonders 2" compilation CD release. As the CD was released, I was interviewed by my friend and Park City local-Randy Barton on his radio show, where we got a chance to discuss the origins of the song. Lots of fun for me as I was in Maryland at the time and got to call in to Randy's show which was "Live" at the time.  Thanks Randy!</p>

<p>Hi friends, ...  this is the new site. I have been so frustrated with the old site, and it being so difficult to keep updated. This new Host has solved all those problems for me and I will now be able to keep my calendar of performances current, and keep those of you who occasionally visit me here, up to speed on what I'm up to. I also hope to be adding some new recordings soon... keep an eye out!</p>
