West coast tour 10-07






Last month we had the pleasure of touring the West Coast. The list of shows went like this.
Rhythm Room in Phoenix AZ, Cozy's in Sherman Oaks CA, Biscuits and Blues in San Francisco CA, Arcadia Blues Club in Arcadia CA, The Horseman's Club in Sacramento CA, Upstage Club in Port Townsend WA, Jazzbones in Tacoma WA. It was fun for me to play in Phoenix as my friend Steve & Stefinie Dawson cam to see us with thier friends. Steve is a great guy and him and i have always had the same taste in music. In California my wife Ruby and daughter, Dalen came to two shows. At the Cozy's show My friend Ralph A and his family and my sister Janet and her husband Jerry came to see us. I find it harder to play in front of family and friends than in front of thousands of strangers. All the shows were well attended and i had a blast. In Sacramento we did a show with Tommy Castro band. Ruby came to see us and a friend from the Blues Cruise Hiedi Green came. It is always great to see Tommy and his show was a blast. I got to meet Majic Dick from the J. Giels band. I have been a fan since 1972. He remembered the venue in Long Island i used to see them in. Above is a picture of him and i. Alos a photo of my wonderful daughter Dalen with Bnoius and phyllis at the ABC show. I love you Dalen. Also above is a rare photo of SJK playing the Hammond Organ at ABC. I am pictured at the Rythm Room holding my laminated photo of my with that i carry everywhere.
