Wacky winter, Louisville style: a dump of snow that lasts barely a day, temperature ranges from single digits to 70+, often within the same week, and the February showers that bring March . . . floods.

I acknowledge the drastic slowdown on this blog, but it is not necessarily a bad thing. Bands and solo projects in full swing, new recorder means new recordings and mixdown times, still working on a poetry collection started last summer . . . lots & lots of projects, little time. There are several projects in this particular pipeline as well, including the ongoing Profligate Vinyl series, and yet another attempt to "get into" Bob Dylan. This blog too will find its turn. Until then . . .
