Thursday is our unofficial anniversary celebration! I will try and stream as much as possible, including the Vibe Hang. I will also try to stream David's afternoon workshop for everyone to see.

It's unofficial because I was going to talk it up this week, but no, our server crashed!!

Let's see what I can do this week to talk it up.

The least expensive transportation to and from the airport is a shuttle. Use the transportation phones in the baggage claim area to arrange for a shuttle to pick you up. You want to call Delaware Express Shuttle. They accept credit cards. Tell the driver to take you to the Amy E. du Pont Music Building at the University Of Delaware in Newark (Orchard Rd. and Amstel Ave.)

To return to the airport, call the Delaware Express Shuttle (302-454-7800 or 800-648-5466) 24 hours in advance for a reservation.

Amtrak

Every body is welcome to come Thursday to the University of Delaware For Our Open House. It starts around 2pm.

Take the day off of work and practicing and drive down, come meet, David Friedman, me, Behn Gillece, Mike Pinto, Randy Sutin, all the attendees at the workshop and everyone else who comes!!

I love this lesson and he says 'It's Important to Sing'. I love when I hear my idols saying things that I believe, It means I'm on track!

Well maybe things are back to normal. Before I go and apologize and tell you guys what happened and everything else I have to say, let me see what's up with my partner.

This was a terrible week for me. I'm still not sure completely as to what happened here.

Beautiful! Simply beautiful! :o)

Check this out! What a treat to come home to this in my inbox. David Friedman playing Milestones.

This is the old Milestones. Do you know the story? There are 2 Milestones and this one came first. The modal one that we all know came second.

I love watching David play. Check out his right hand, how he swings and how he throws in the chords. This is a great study for all of us!
