Just found this old photo from March of 2005, I had opened a show for @RobynHitchcock at The Iron Horse @IHEG in Northampton, MA. Afterwards, a group of us found our way to a nearby open mic. Here is @Lloyd_Cole, @lookpark, @sittingnext2bri, me and Robyn Hitchcock. 1/3

Tomorrow evening, Thursday March 5, looks like it's gonna be gross weather so I get to use my favorite line for live streams, "Thanks for staying in on a night like this."

I made a simple little page with links to my new single "You, So I" on all your favorite music streaming sites. I hope you find it handy. I'll likely be adding to it throughout the day. I hope my new song hits home for you today.

Here's a pre-holiday holiday song. Do you know anyone who curates playlists on the streaming services or radio stations? This song has withstood the test of time around these parts but could use a seasonal bump out in the big old cruel world.
