Well that's a way to enter a new month. August indeed.
|
|
I welcome the definition. Can 2024 be approaching the 2/3 mark??
|
|
|
|
I know what else is approaching, and wherever you're throwing your support, may I invite you to follow your heart and not the noise.

For me this means taking a deeper look (and listen) beyond the soundbites and "iconic images" and seismic events of these challenging times. Anything being a "no-brainer" for anyone on any side of anything implies exactly that. I intend to use mine for as long as I have it, and important decisions merit careful thought and consideration.

August is one of four months this year that I've consciously chosen to take off from touring. I live on Cape Cod, an amazing place that draws people from all over the world, and sometimes I can overlook that in my enthusiasm to "fill the calendar" and go out and about in search of musical (and otherwise) adventures. Time to wake up and smell the beaches, the bike paths, the beauty.

That said, I get to enjoy others play here at home these next few weeks before heading back to Scotland on September 1st. Here's what's cooking locally:
