My daughter Dalen and her friend Angel. Dalen is so excited every time she sees us play. I love that about her.

I have been looking forward to playing in San Diego since the gig was booked. I had about 50 of my friends and family in this very classy club. I ton of my AA buddies showed and stayed all night. Thanks so much to all of them. Dianna and Bill W brought a big crowd also. I can not thank everyone but you know who you are. The Road Dogs women where there, Kelly, Nadja, and Elaine. The Blues Lovers United San Diego (BLUSD) was a big help promoting the show and have allways been supportive. Steve Burns wrote an article about me for their newsletter and mentioned the show. Joan Hunt was there taking pictures as always. See her Flicker acount at http://www.flickr.com/photos/laughingrhino/sets/72157604913368949/.....The Road Dogs portion of the show went excellent. The crowd was very warm and made of feel at home. We did have a chance to run through our set right after sound check. It was sort of weird playing in front of Joe and Bnois i must say. Then the Smokin Joe Traveling Blues Extravaganza featuring Bnois King. It was a blast to share the music i have been making around the world with MY peeps. It was over all too soon. Thanks again to all the people that have facilitated my doing this part of my life. Again it was great to sleep in my own bed and wake up next to my wife. I got up early and went to my regular Sunday morning AA meeting. I was really tired but it was awesome to connect with my home group. After the meeting i went to visit my mom and dad with Ruby, Alan and Kim. Ruby and i went to Outback for dinner and we all went in the Jacuzzi later in the evening. I got up, packed and left with the band the next morning... I missed being at home. 2 days at home was not enough. 10,000 miles in 4 weeks is a bit much, even for me.
