Post Kerrville Texas gigs!

Have been having a wonderfilled time in Texas. It's still real dry but there is some sprinkling going on today and the air is mistymoisty and water is falling from the sky. They need lots here so send it thisaways if you have too much.

Here's a shot from last night's concert at Artz in Austin.  I've been playing with these folks for a looong time. That's jim Hancock on the left playing his magical mandolin and Carolyn Norulak on the right, fluting it up on "Darkness Comes". Always feels like coming home seeing and playing with friends from long ago.

Here's the poster for the upcoming Father's Day concert at Jovita's on Sunday Juneteenth post fest. The rest of the updated schedule follows. I'll be out at the Crow's Nest in Quiet Valley for the next few weeks.
