Dear friends,

Last minute, I know: In an hour or so Ill be on the air at KUVO, community jazz radio 89.3 FM in Denver. Celebrating their fund drive, KUVO is interviewing a few people from the local music community. Im honored to be included today, Friday, Sept 30 at 1pm!

Tonight a last minute call to play some New Orleans traditional clarinet for a dinner at Primrose Early Education in Thornton.

Saturday, I am honored to play for the CD release by Harry Tuft, founder of Denver Folklore Center, where I first bought a harmonica. A number of us who recorded on Harry's new CD will perform with him at Swallow Hill  Music. 8pm Sat. Mollie O'Brien, Rich Moore, Carla Sciaky, Ernie Martinez, Liz Masterson, Greg Garrison, Dexter Payne, David Metsch, Mag Hayden, and Grubstake.

Then next week I am off again with the Lionel Young Band, this time to King Biscuit Blues festival in Helena, AR and a weekend in Topeka, KS.

Returning home for Thurs, Oct 13 at Caffe Sole: Dexter Payne Quartet featuring Bill Kopper, Dave Willey, Raoul Rossiter.

Tune in your radio and keep community radio alive!

See you soon,

Dear friends,

Finally, faces I know ... friends I've missed! There are a lot of things to miss when you spend a season on the move ( the Lionel Young Band logged over 35000 miles this summer!) but the thing I missed most was my community here at home. No amount of enthusiastic new audiences, or even old friends from the past, can replace you!

Telluride Blues was a blast - once we got past the cold rain turning to snow as we played, and it finished with a packed evening show at the Telluride Elks Lodge (yes, indoors!) Please come out and catch the remaining front range shows with this great band, before we head to King Biscuit Fest (10/6), the Blues Cruise (10/23-29) and Paris (11/9-16)! Yep, that's in France, not TN! Also, I have the chance to reunite with a few of my CO musical friends. Come on, don't miss it!
