Sorry about your cold, Pam -- did you know that the Japanese have 5 prepositional phrases for blowing your nose? -- one for dabbing the nose with kleenex, one for honking like a skein of flying geese heading over the autumn woods, one for really getting up in there, and....er....well anyway.
That Fielding -- he is always throwing instruments at people and saying, oh, this balalaika stuff is not as hard as it looks -- drives you nuts. He had me playing the cajun accordion last week. If anyone had told me earlier in the day that I would be playing an accordion of any shape....It is a scary house that Fielding place: The House Of Mystery Instruments.
I heard the rough mix of the two tunes -- great, particularly the neat outros. A bodhran like a rock with a heartbeat.

yours ever, Peter
P.S. How are the boots coming?

P.P.S. Hate to do this, but the place is Yorkville, not Yorktown, in case you are place dropping.
