Waiting in the Snow

Hey ya'll
its Thursday April 5th 2007 and writing this from Interlaken New York
I’ve been here since Monday afternoon, but not much of note has happened yet.
I had rehearsals Tuesday and wed. with the band guys here. And besides that
I’ve mostly sat around and waited.

One funny thing did happen....it snowed here this morning...now that's a funny joke
ha ha .

I did an interview Tues. with Jim Catalano...we were in one of the offices at the
Ithaca Journal, and we were chatting it up, and he's asking me some questions and I’m answering them...when the fire alarm goes off. The building empties and everybody troops outside, and the fire dept. shows up.....but there didn't seem to be a fire (and anyway I had an alibi) so we all troop back inside....I finished up the interview and walked over to the lazy dog cafe
where I got to check out djug django that's one of the bands with the Acetos and Chad Lieberman....really fun band to watch...I’ll have to remember to check with Eric on whether or not they have a website.

Jim Catalano told me he played in a group that was kind of a jam country thing and told me I should come out later that night and check em out...they play lots of Merle Haggard and Buck Owens (you know, you really can't go wrong with that). They were playing about 9:30 and I had intended to walk over and hang out for a while but then the jetlag landed on me pretty hard and I figured wherever I wanted to wake up was where I better get to pretty quick so I reluctantly took a pass and headed for Hall road.

ok that's all for now
I’ll update tomorrow. Right now I’ve got to get my boots on and get to Syracuse
I have a show there in a couple of hours.

Adios

Hi Billy,

It was really nice to meet you! I thoroughly enjoyed hearing your music and that of your friend Phil and the Flying Aceto Brothers in T-Burg. One of these days, maybe we'll get you on the dancefloor to Tango! Looking forward to your next visit.
