I just saw Pete Seeger play at the Corn Fest in Beacon, NY and he was inspiring as always. His voice may not be what it was when he was 78, but it gets the job done. He gets us singing, which is his main goal I think.

Hope Machine is rolling along, the solo shows have been good, and as you may have noticed, I've also been playing quite a bit with my good friend Matt Turk lately. I don't know when we'll have a CD available, but we do plan on making one at some point. In the mean time we have been putting more and more songs together all the time so not only will we be playing some of our oldies but we are also co-writing a bit and playing folk and civil rights songs in the NY subways as part of the MUNY (music under NY) program. We recently had an amazing experience in Harlem at the 125th & 8th station... We also recently recorded music for the Wyoming Tourism website. I'll put that link up when it is running.

My other news is I have a manager now. Tom Staudter (Green Man Media & Management) is the guy. I've know Tom about 4 years and I am extremely excited to have his help.
