DPI-Summer Lessons
DPI was hopping last night, Summer seems to finally be here!! Lots of repeat customers from my Tuesday night gig, A double
header at DPI. I filled in for Steve on Tuesday night... Sox Have won 11 in a row and beat Pedro last night.. Beckett looked
good... My Summer guitar leeson schedule is in the works, It might be a chanllenge to reconfigure it but it's getting there,
Hope I don't lose to many students for the summer, I'd like to see them all keep up with it.. Some of them are getting really
good and have put time into it. I'd love to see them all continue to progress...

Harp And Hound
I only played once this past month at the Harp. It was a great show!!! Tons of supportive feedback. I hope to get some
more shows booked soon, I love playing here and the room is very comfortable..The crowd is usually very receptive as well.
They also have a great bar menu, Bangers and Mash, Homemade soups, Lobster rolls and much more. The staff is friendly and
acccomodating and they have a great beer and single malt selection. Keep checking my schedule for updates and news...

Busy Summer
I have a feeling that it is going to be a busy summer. I have been getting calls to do parties and weddings. A bunch of requests
for my services in the past few weeks, Some of the events are only weeks away, People need to plan ahead! I played yesterday
at a wedding in Canterbury CT.. Susan ( Tayla's Aunt) and David.. Congrats. It went well.... Until I got rained on outside
during the dinner portion of the performance.... No tent. It was actually humorous , or would have been if I didn't lose
my I-Pod.... I been stressing that all morning.. We ran my stuff in the garage in the downpour and I had to wipe my guitar
down with paper towels. What a mess. I bet mt ipod will show up. I hope so anyway... That was my baby! I put a wedding music
page on my website. Very basic but I included a few of the photos that Larry did for me.. I need to put some audio on there
next.... I started a new student a few weeks ago, I have a couple students on the weekend, people who are only here once
in the while I do them When I can fit them. It's woth it though, They are 1 hour lessons in... SInce they are adults they
are able to take more musical torture. i have been practicing classical guitar just about every day... I want to experience
what my students feel when the are doing music which is to hard for tham and takes time to achieve. I'm trying to play some
pretty difficult stuff. It is good for my sight reading.. Reading up the neck is hard!!!! in hard keys like B major etc...
I bought Rush "Moving Pictures" I love that album, I remember playing Tom Sawyer on the juke box at Mr Pizza in
North Stonington when I was a kid....Pizza and instant mashed potatoes were my favorite combo, I was a weird kid.The indians
bought the builing and now it is an Admin center or something.... It's fathers day, Ithink Diane and Ava are bringing me out
to lunch, I'm hungry.... I ate at THe Hard Rock Cafe on the way hjome last night, Cool atmosphere, Bland food.... Guess you
don't go to the Hardrock for the food, It's the guitars hangin on the walls and loud tunes... Cool visuals...
