Dear Friends, Fans, and Music Lovers
Happy Valentines Day !!


I rarely perform at weddings these days, but last year being as weird as it was I actually played for two. So for the Lovers this weekend…
Long time friend and former music partner Lewie Hughes was married and I played the ceremony, reception and was the Best Man,…a first for me ! It was totally fun with Lewie jumping in and singing and entertaining… Just like 40 years ago !!!


The second was a garden wedding for another couple that was introduced from another long time friend.With mask and social distancing in place, the Bride and Groom were at the alter and it was time to place rings on each other and then………they both sprayed sanitizer on each others hands…. before the rings !!


One more, from the late 90’s. I had been leading bands at the most beautiful locations in So Cal, the Ritz Carlton’s, Four Seasons, The Grant Hotel, The Bonaventure, Del Coronado, all world class locations. One day I got a call from a couple that asked if I could play acoustic guitar at the Gazebo by Las Brisas in Laguna. So there I was with only a dozen people in the Gazebo over looking the Pacific Ocean with one of the most amazing views and picture perfect weather. Simple, Sweet and Elegant. A beautiful simple wedding ……..and priceless.


Stay well & blessed
