Things are starting to slow down a little. I always have a cool down in July for some reason. I may be starting a couple of movie projects. Writing, acting, and scoring so this is new ground for me. I have had a walk on role in a movie but never really acted haha. I have scored movies but never written one. I mean that is all a new development after a fim maker contacted me last night so going to see where it goes. I have been playing with several bands as a hired guitarist plus doing a bunch of solo gigs and radio shows. Still in the talking stage of writing a book with Larry Cohen in LA about the development of Thumbpicking and Bluegrass in Western Ky. I took a spell where I was going to Rosine KY (The home of Bill Monroe) and hanging out. It is only about 30 miles or so from me. Trying to get a feel and learn more from the locals. Ron Bankley and I started Thunder Thieves 2 this past Spring so keep an eye and ear open for that. I am going to be recording a Rockabilly CD with a band from Paducah KY coming up as well. They asked me about a month ago and it is going to be a cool project. I will be on more now things are slowing down some. Great to hear from everyone again. I have missed getting on here and hearing from everyone. Mudcat is still my fav site and it is good to be back.
