FEBRUARY NEWS '08
Greetings from Howard, Colorado, where it's a good idea to shovel your roof... and the snow keeps coming. I saw an Antelope being chased by a coyote across the back 40. It was like the Discovery channel in my own back yard. I opened the door and yelled "Hey over here" and the little feller turned right for me and ran over to our yard. The coyote had a look of resentment as he skulled off.
Meanwhile indoors, Gabrielle just finished recording a version of Willy Nelson's "Take back America" song for posting on Willy's site.
It features Ryan Dricky on twin Fiddles and me on Mandolin. It should be posted soon.
I just got back from a week of overdubbing in Denver for Bill Wright's "Barbwire" CD project. We even added Sitar to a cut! We're just about ready to mix.

YO HO HO!
HAPPY SPRING FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY LITTLE GREEN BLADES OF GRASS! This is the best time of the year - warm, long days, surfing mountain slush, T-shirts and debauchery... Lets all share in a collective group exhale - ahhhshush- as we bid the cold farewell and inhale - fffuuuauhh- the glorious rights of Spring.
The String Cheese Incident blew through the Rockies last week with 5 giant sold out shows. I was fortunate to attend 2, and especially lucky to get to Jam at an after-show show in Vail with Drew Emmitt and friends (Billy Nershi, Anthony Hannigan, Scott Law, and Tyler Grant).
The Cheese percussion section ( Travis and Jason Hann) have a new live looping duo, EOTO. I got to see and sit in with them on Paddy's day night in Dillon. Holy Hi-Tech!
Historical footnote: Travis played percussion with me when we lived in Crested Butte in the early 90's. We performed as a duo, and with Voodoo Chili, an electric 4-piece jam band. We later formed an acoustic trio with Sandy Moon called Travis, Hayes, and Moon.
Travis played percussion on everything I recorded in those years- Pack of Dogs, Lunch, and many projects for other folks. I was playing casual bluegrass gigs with Billy Nershi, Michael Kang, and Kieth Moseley around CB at the time in between tours with Melanie and Acoustic Junction. Once when I was out of town they got Travis to fill in and the "Blue String Cheese Accident" was formed.
SCI retuned to CB a year later to cut their first demo in my bedroom studio. Travis and I reunited in the Ragged Mountain Ramblers in 2001 for a show at the Crested Butte Center for the Arts that became the Sold OUT at the Center CD.
One more historical note: Travis first met Jason Hann at the Sierra Fest in '97. Their first impromptu Jam session is captured on the Lunch CD (Cheese Camp Drum Incident).
