We did a tour of the UK, and, got to visit, the frickin’ Cavern Club. So, we learned a few more Beatles tunes…..

Webb Tigert Duo
So, we have a couple friends from the Nashville area… They play ukuleles, but, not what you think of, with uke tunes…. They turn a tune into their own. Their band is great. They really make listening fun….
Here’s an example of one of their covers…. Never ‘liked’ the tune, til they spun it upside down …. Go, give a listen to it, and their other work…. Good stuff……
Milwaukee Irish Fest
We’ve been a couple times… You KNOW you want to go….
Caterpillar Sighting
Was watering plants/pots, this morning, and came across this caterpillar. It’s a black swallowtail… We’ve seen several of them as butterflies, wandering through the yard. Happy to see one in progress…
Magtones…
I love this photo, cuz my lovely wife just shines in it. We’ve played together for what, 25 years now. She’s so good at being ‘entertaining’, while my job is to PLAY…
We don’t do the usual tunes. We play whatever we like… Makes us a ‘niche’ sound, but, hey, that’s what we do…
What’s Up…
So, we survived the winter. Had a few gigs.
Got a new hip.
Made some plans for the summer. Life is good…

Grass Attack At The Barrymore Theater
Hi there… So, here it is, mid February, and we have our first gig. It was a United Way fund raiser, in Madison, Wisconsin- one of MY favorite cities in the USA- at the Barrymore Theater…. Several bands donated their time and talent… A good afternoon…. So, here are some pix and video snippets of the band, taken by my lovely wife,
What a great group of people/musicians to be with….
