Okee dokee folks… I had a Rhode Island moment the other night. The weird thing is that I was in Vermont. I was waiting to go on at Radio Bean in Burlington when the performer that was playing just before me announced that she was from Narragansett. Being in the music business (and a Rhode […]
Okee dokee folks…Last week I went to hear Indigo Girls at Lupo’s. While they were in fine form for most of the show, the most successful numbers were the ones that stayed true to their original acoustic based/vocal harmony sound. The familiar songs were often sung with the accompaniment of a thousand or so voices […]
Last week I was fortunate enough to be part of the sold out Fiddlers and Fishermen show at Common Fence Point in Portsmouth. I love this show! It’s so much fun to be a part an event like this and to hear all of the other artists as well. Some of the highlights of the […]
Okee dokee folks … phew! I am glad that last year is over and done! Hopefully 2013 will be much, much better! For all of you, too! I am looking forward to playing lots of music, writing lots of music, and listening to lots of live music! Oh, and using lots of exclamation points!!! Read […]
Okee dokee folks…Forward. Thank you, America! So, I had a busy week of checking out shows. Trying to make up for lost time. Jesus Christ Superstar at the PVD Social Club was absolutely AMAZING!

Okee dokee folks…It’s unofficially summer. The Memorial Day Weekend starting gun has been fired. I hope that you’ve done some eye stretches and are ready to read the marathon list of summer music and fun that I now bestow upon you all. I feel like a teacher that gives homework to their students at the […]
Okee dokee folks… And now back to our regularly scheduled programming. Just in case you were wondering, I didn’t have a column last issue as we put out the Motif Awards edition. In my last column, I wrote about Kathleen Edwards. The magazine came out. The show was cancelled. I just saw a posting on […]
Okee dokee folks… I got inked. Yes, I went and got myself a tattoo. It’s small. I got it in memory of my dog, Zoey. The first thing folks ask me about it is “did it hurt?” My reply has been, “it felt like a hot knife cutting through my skin.” That feeling was only […]
Okee dokee folks…” A dog’s age,” that phrase defines a length of time, actually quite a length of time. It’s not commonly used anymore. I titled my last CD A Dog’s Age because it had been a long time since I made a CD and because I love (my) dogs. Now I sit at my […]
