It’s like Siemens inventing streetcars because they really want to sell electricity. Monopolistic markets as known from communistic and dictatory regimes running on the backs of the creators of the magic. Business as usual? Here is an informative article about the merge of Ticketmaster and LiveNation which was given government consent today…

Looks like Canadians did it again at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis: Just like Steve Marriner and Monkey Junk last year impressing everybody coming in third of representing bands from a hundred blues societies, this year it’s Nova Scotia’s Matt Andersen who blew everybody away.

Better than your own living room on a dreamy January Sunday afternoon in Eastern Ontario:
The SUNDAY Open Jam hosted by Terry Tufts in the Stonewater Pub in Gananoque. Now don’t confuse that with the Open Mic night on Thursday nights with Les Picard and violin player Kevin Davidson with different line up every week in the same venue, which is also great – Terry’s on Sundays from 2-5 pm!!
Great to see that old rebel again – felt even better to show him my tuning in front of all the jammers after I played “Natural Woman” – gonna look good on the resume to having interested that guitar god in a different tuning! It’s actually really easy, the low E goes down on D just as in Drop D, and then the B string gets lowered on A.
It makes every harmony sound a little bit … Continue reading

Trying to get my first tax return and report ready as well as figuring out, what and whom to play on the show and then this happened:
“Mysterious” singer and modern gypsy Lhasa de Sela succumbed to breast cancer on New Year’s Day at age 37 – sad news to start the year… Her music amazes me and I highly recommend to check her out. Hope to play a song of her penning on Saturday….
I just googled briefly and found this:
