JUST POSTED NEW SCHEDULE
I FINALLY POSTED MY NEW SCHEDULE. Just booked dates through April at Harp and Hound and Riverwalk. I've had great runs at
both places. Keep coming to the shows so I can keep up the momentum. I Just booked another summer gig, August 12th all day!
I'm already booked 8/5..I've had to say no to 2 people for that date already since I contracted a gig months ago. whats up
with the first week in August?. Can't be in 3 places at once. I haven't had time to work on the wedding site to much.....Hurt
my back last week....feels better now......Josh and Mike, Thanks for the help carrying stuff last week at the Riverwalk, couldn't
have done it with out you, literally. Getting calls fo more students, I'm expanding to Thursdays in a few weeks to accomadate
the demand...Met the owner of "David's Cafe" on rte 12, I may play there sometime soon. Lighthouse called me last
week for a last minute gig, I was already booked, It got cold all of the sudden.. Brrrrrrrr 15-20 degrees...

My Space
This is a very interesting thing " My Space". I just discovered it although I have been hearing about it for a awhile,
It is awesome. The ultimate networking tool/ waste of time. I can see how you could get addicted to being on line and feel
like you have a social life without actually having to see people. The sites range from the bogus bare bones personal to completly
legit promotional sites for bands etc. i found alot of people on there that I hadn't talked to in a while or had forgotten
about. I will eventually develop a site for my space, Low Beam & Andy Stackpole Has a site So I guess I need one to. It's
a good way to get your music around the country without having to actually travel, Freinds list,,,Postings etc.. you'll know
when U check it out.i'm new to it so maybe it's not as cool as it initially seems, but I'm thinkin' it is.You can promot your
music, Arrange some romantic dates, get in touch with long lost friends, contact your realatives, see what other people are
up to personally and professionally. Possibilities seem endless.....My Gig on wednesday at Dpi was o.k. I wasn't my normal
chipper self, Tried a few new #'s ( Ruby Tuesday, About a Girl )and an original I never played for people before, A decent
response, Thats encouraging, didn't tell people what it was till after I played it.
Valentines day was mello. Got a Massage..I
see the Lighthouse has jazz and blues bands in the thursday spot which I use to occupy, Gotta say, I'm glad to have this Thursday
( and Thurs for a little while) to rest, I hurt my back...Seems like The lighthouse is going for a jazz/blues thing across
the board, Would have been nice if they would have given me more than 3 days notice when they canceled my date last week,
very unprofessional. Apparently not eveyone is up to my standards of professionalism. I have 3 gigs next week, The winter
tour continues........Rock On...Check me out on myspace.......get your own area, it's cool. Check me out at the River Walk
this Friday 2/17!!!!!!!!!!8:30pm

Thor Is A God.
Good evening all.
My web designer " Thor" came to do a test run for some video for my site at Stash's...Also
took some promo photos.....have I mentioned how helpful he is? ( now I'm bustin' Yo Chops T) Seriously though...Yall gott
get yourselves an I-T- Guru, Thor is the man. go to his web site from my link page. or go to ( www.pyramidmtd.com ) ..
I e-mailed him at 1 am recently to tell him somethng was wrong with my site , not expecting him to get it till the AM but
he e-mails me rigth back..Scary vampire thing going on..The web master doesn't sleep...Stash's was fun tonight . It was Jerry
from Frank and beans...birthday tonight and he sat in.. Cat got energy to spare...Always good to see J..and frank... HE gave
me the biggest hug ( he is a 6 ft tall black man) i've had in a while....don't get any crazy ideas......Were just friends....Some
inebreated girl tried to pick me up at the end of the night, You wanna keep going? What does that mean? Maybe she was just
trying to get me to buy her a drink, She was 14 and 1/2 sheets to the wind....Think she felt rejected when I got up and ran
away. Kidding. I just acted like I could't quite understand her ( cause I couldn't ) 1 more gig to go...Riverwalk manana.....
Please come see me and rock out!!

Larry, You Blog addict.
Larry St.Pierre has told me he likes the blog. Any one else reading it? E-mail me and let me know what you think. Harp was
slow ( but steady) on tuesday but some loyal fans stayed for much of my performance..I really appreciate the support, especially
in the winter slump we are in. Guess the ground hog saw his shadow so winter( if U want to call it that) will press on longer.
I think it's a state of mind..Tired after the holidays. Izzy sat in at the harp on tuesday. His lady and Nate( Dawg ) were
in the house Thanks guys for hangin'. So did Brandon D, B.D. sounded good.Also Tayla and POPS-were in da Mutha..Fly to see
eu cats out. Big gig week ..4 in a row....I'm a rock god.
playin Stash's with da G man tonight. Love dem Chic. tenders
and Anchor Steam...Dpi was o.k. last night , In DPI fashion it picked up at Da end. Shot of TEQ with Gerry after. She so crazy.
Just booked an april private party today. Life is good....Just learned a couple more Dylan tunes....Maybe I'll try em agin
tonigth. I even played 3 originals last nigt. Very rare. Gotta do it more often. Good rsponse to 1 of them ..1outta 3 ain;t
bad.. actually it is, If you haer me play a song you don't recognize clap like you losin' it cause it's probbably an original..
Workin' on some material for c.d. Tough to write good songs...
Peace fo' now.
