Happy Holidays

I'm home again. The ground is still moving ( as if still on the train) . . .
I miss everyone terribly but I guess you can't live on a train forever . Was a great trip and so much money was raised and food gathered. I felt so good to be part of it and especially this year when it seems that more people are struggling for just food and shelter. Hard times.

I'm heading into the studio today with Creighton ( brother , producer) to do a vocal and look at some other new material I'm planning to release soon. Feeling excited about music and life.
Thanks to all who came out to see the Holiday Train and to those who have written lately. I hope to be out performing as much as possible in the new year.
See you then.

Juno

Had an awesome day off in Chicago yesterday. Felt funny to be off the train . Have three shows today and the rain is going to change to cold cold soon. Our train has maintained heat and power so far. . Fingers crossed. Canadian train not so lucky.

People in the audience here keep asking what I did in the movie JUNO.

Since they keep reading "JUNO award" in the paper but have no idea what that is. :)
