Tonight I just let it go and spoke about the opening up and my ambivalence around it all.

As things are improving with vaccinations and declining numbers the live music scene is beginning to slowly open up . What will the live gigging scene look like for musicians in this time pandemic transition

This episode is really about me reflecting on the genesis and ongoing development of my little podcast as a personal forum to chronicle my thoughts on past and present issues and events... both my own and in the larger sense.

Waking up from a very stressful and unsettling dream I felt the urge to examine my feelings and thoughts around our present reality of the COVID-19 nightmare/reality.

In this episode I delve into ny early R+R band days in Winnipeg and taking my first trip out to Vancouver to join a pro band.

In this episode I delve into a stream of thoughts I am having upon awakening and feeling the anxiety of another day of unsettled reality. A mixture of hope through the vaccines and dread of the variants and where that might take us.

In this episode I go Way Back to the mid 50s... well before I started actually playing in a R+R band in Winnipeg in 1966. As I record on my cell... I neglected to mute notifications so there are unfortunately som annoyng "dings"... my apologies. I hope the content overshadows the brief interruptions

I explore my feelings and observations personally and otherwise around the effects of one year of COVID-19 on the health.. physical and mental... and coping through various means... including music.

This episode is truly a rambling stream of memories from my past up to my present relationship with music in my older years.
