Hi all,
I've been away from Mudcat for way too long. Rick's concert was the best one I'd been to in a long time. It was great to hear Jerry playing his songs live, rather than listening to his records, thank you. Thanks to Barbara and Frank for inviting us to their home after the concert for the jam session. It was great fun. I haven't had the opportunity to play like that for so long. When I lived in NJ, I belonged to several folk music organizations and each had monthly sings or evenings of music, where we'd gather at someone's house to socialize and play music all night. We don't have any of that here in Westchester Co., NY, and I hadn't realized how much I miss it. Rick, Barbara, you're too kind about my psaltry playing, I hope my hat still fits (bg). Tim, I haven't heard you play your mandolin for a long while and I'm greatly impressed, you're good. It was great be with the rest of the 'catters in attendance as well. We should do this all over again, soon, somewhere. Best regards, Duane.
