Busy Month!
Hey, sorry for not keeping up…I promise to post events and thoughts of interest more frequently. It would be great for some responses to let me know who might be checking in.
On August 22nd I saw Return To Forever with Zappa plays Zappa at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville. RTF was my favorite band when I was in high school so I was expecting some big things. To be truthful, it was a bit like going back to the house you grew up in. It didn’t seem quite as big and awesome as it once did. I enjoyed the concert, aside from the fact that the acoustics don’t accommodate drums and bass well there. Some amazing talent in both bands. Just a little underwhelmed.
I have been busy performing private events with the Skyline Drive Band. I have also been working a bit with Tim & Myles Thompson (Nashville Amp Expo and the Franklin Jazz Festival). Tim and Myles are exceptional musicians and I encourage you to visit their website for videos and a touring schedule. timthompsonguitar.com
I have put the bass instruction videos on hold and have started work on my own CD. This is self-produced music CD featuring me and some of my favorite musicians with some covers and original compositions. I plan on having 3 songs complete and available on my website before the end of this year and to try to attract some record label attention to finish and get some distribution after that. More on that as it develops.
More later. In the meantime, stay well and post a note!
