I’m Super Psyched because I’ve just memorized<br />
a new classical concerto for violin. I recently performed it a few<br />
times impromptu. It’s ready for the concert stage and I’m wondering<br />
who the best accompanist will be. I will likely perform the piece as<br />
a duet with piano and so the collaborative artist I choose is crucial.<br />
The piece is in the key of A minor which is great for the violin and I<br />
can really dig in, but there’s also a lot of artistic depth and therefore<br />
choices to make as far as shading, color and interpretation. I’ve<br />
been thinking of programming it with some other material in a<br />
modern version of a Victor Borge act. <strong>May</strong>be I’m just fantasizing<br />
but I think it could go over well. It’s always good to add material to<br />
your recital repertoire.<br />
Meanwhile I’m preparing for some shows in a bunch of honky<br />
tonks and dance halls. I’m a bandleader and singer for a couple<br />
of bands. The Coyotes and Towndogs blast off large with some<br />
super-funky psychedelic swing. We rock it hard to the max with<br />
trombone, electric guitars and a full band. The mix is about half<br />
originals and we’ve been playing long enough that everyone knows<br />
and sings along with our songs. It’s nice that we play enough pop<br />
covers to keep everyone dancing and coming back for more. Next<br />
year makes 20 years together!<br />
The Potlikkers play a more traditional style with stand-up bass and<br />
I play fiddle. We do “old timey” jug band music with a dance beat.<br />
People love hearing the old songs and we get a real kick out of<br />
it too. I perform in character as Plum Tucker and we usually<br />
dress the part in overalls or as Country Gentleman. You’ve<br />
never heard Old Joe Clark played with such enthusiasm.<br />
I’ve been touring a good bit in the Appalachian<br />
Mountains so I’ll be adding a lot of new repertoire<br />
from influences I pick up along the way.<br />

Lately lots of friends and acquaintances<br />
are building various musical instruments.<br />
Everything from fine classical guitars to<br />
steel drums and real nice electric guitars<br />
I’ve made a slew of drums and a couple<br />
batches of dulcimers but have been<br />
looking for a new project. <strong>May</strong>be a nice<br />
line of cigar box fiddles? I’ve got some<br />
new ideas and I am so<br />
Super Psyched!
