Update
Computer crash and more
What a week we’ve had! I wanted to get this out to you early in the week, but our computer suffered a fatal crash. Thankfully, some of our data was saved online. That was only the first in a series of disasters. We appeared on a 1-hour live show on Channel 16 in Schenectady at 10AM this morning joined by Tom King and J Peter Yakel from Flood Road, Michael Eck and Wild Bill from the Ramblin Jug Stompers and Roland Vinyard to promote Rhythm on the Ridge, an all-day roots music festival happening all day tomorrow.
I hope you will all come. Rhythm on the Ridge promises to be great fun. Be sure to bring your instruments for some fine “field picking!”Rhythm on the Ridge
