LIVE virtual concerts are the flavor of the day with<br />
Aunt ‘Rona still in town. Lockdowns keep us in but<br />
NO WAY can that dim our spirits! Musicians have<br />

Bali, Paris and Hawaii. An interesting fact about me is last<br />

like it’s nothing. One debate that rages is Scales vs damage. I put my down time to good use and can<br />
