MUSIC 2005 and 2006!!!
2005 and 2006........ I have met so many unique and special people in my travels and played some of the richest, most fun music of my career. Soon, with the help of Bill Lantz, I will also be able to post photos on O8. I can't wait.....this year promises to be filled with much music also. Plans include Argentina, Spain, France, Costa Rica, Chile, Mexico and the U.S........here in Arizona.
Most recently, fun and wonderful band, eZOO, performed in Mexicali this weekend with Federico Miranda from Costa Rica. You will find links to everyone I speak of on the up-coming Oxygene8 "linkage" page...haha! Federico is quite an exceptional guitarist and human being. His band, The Baula Project and young band, Introvision, performed with eZOO in Costa Rica in November, 2005. I did a Stick clinic while there and I was very touched by the warmth and interest of everyone that attended. We had an impromptu jam session and a few brave souls came up and strapped on the Stick, with fine guitar players, bassists and drummers on board also. I would like to write more about the people that organized this concert and clinic and the beautiful jungles and beaches of Costa Rica, and I will do that on a separate page that will accompany photos. Thank you for being patient as I figure out how to present my work in the music world in a way that might be interesting to you.
I attended NAMM 2006 and met with many friends and even had the opportunity to play a full-grown harp! What an exceptionally beautiful instrument, especially when I relinquished my seat to someone that really knew how to play it! Regretfully, the Chapman Stick booth was not available this year. Last year, I kept returning to the warmth of Emmett and Yuta Chapman each time the noise and sea of people got a bit too much for me. NAMM did a tribute for Lissa Wales, photographer and friend, and many others that the music world lost in 2005.
I visited with Bob Chini at CARVIN......what a great artist representative to have........thank you, Bob and great to see you......I'd like to play at the Carvin booth next year!
It was a pleasure to enjoy conversation and caffeine with Federico Miranda from Costa Rica and I also ran into Bruce Cohen and Doug Williams....... both dear friends and former bandmates from early musical projects.
More on a new CD project, CCA, with Guillermo Cides and Tim Alexander coming up.
