It's been quite a while since I posted but here's what's going on.  We played a private party for 650 people last weekend and it was really a kick.  Thanks to the Flowers-Davis Law Firm for showing us a great time and having us play their annual crawfish boil.  Great food, cold beer, of course great music and even a fireworks show.  Along with Tony Marsh, our uncomparable guitar player, we had Richard Raines of Shinebox and Perfect Stranger play guitar and mandolin.  We also used fiddle for the first time in a live show.  Kevin Carter came up from Lufkin and man is he good.  He's a sometimes player with Gene Watson.  Cameron Holley came up from Austin to play bass and fell in like he played with us every night.  Thanks to all those guys.

Acoustic song swaps begin this month.  April 25th Susan Gibson is coming up to play with me.  She is always fun and a wonderfuly songwriter.  Most people know her from her Dixie Chicks hit, Wide Open Spaces, but she has written a lot of other great songs.  She has a new CD coming out so we'll hear some new stuff.  I have few new ones to try out as well.

Next month Adam Carroll is coming back and I'm really looking forward to playing with him.  Then, in June Houston Marchman is coming.  This is a real treat since Houston was really instrumental in getting me started.  And, in July my friend Owen Temple is coming.  All of these great songwriters have new CDs so keep an eye on the calendar and don't miss any of these acoustic shows.

Keep in touch and send me a message on the blog or at the myspace when you can.
