Hey, all: I'm kinda outta touch with the folk club scene so I don't know what goes anymore. Not that I ever did. I think that's due in great part to the difference between folk clubs in the U.K. and the diminished coffee house circuit over here. The coffee houses (they should be renamed church basement houses) that have an open sing are swamped with young kids, mostly. They want to try out their two new songs they wrote on the way over to the coffee house. I never understood that. When I started performing I did stuff I'd done a million times. I was scared enough to begin with, without doing brand new songs. I still see that happening on occasion and I'm still puzzled. Why do a song where you're messing up the chords and forgetting the words?

We had lasagna that I made for supper. There's still some left...
