Hi Everyone, I'm just back from a trip to St. Louis. It was grey,
drizzling and cold and what a nice contrast touching back down into San
Diego's warmth. The first thing I did off the plane was jump in the
wild blue pacific for some equalization.

We had a great time with Dianne and the crew creating new songs and
mapping out how the new recording will go. There's more work to do but
we've got a good beginning.

For this week we've got a cool collection of gigs starting with Monday
night at the Calypso with our trio. It's been a fun hang and great way
to slide into the new week.

Thursday night is me solo guitaring it at the world famous Roxy
Restaurant. Come along for the great food and transcendental sonic
explorations.

On Friday and Saturday nights I'll be playing at Ki's with Fred
Benedetti as my guest on Friday and Kevyn Lettau singing with me on
Saturday. Big fun!

Last for the week, on Saturday afternoon we're doing our big FREE
concert with my string group plus a vocal quartet added into the mix.
It's going to be a thrill and it's a whole new angle on what goes on
inside my brain. Chaos organized with street logic galvanized with a
lifelong passion for sound.

We're rehearsing the ensemble again tomorrow and I'm thinking I'll take
some pictures and share them with you later this week. A little visual
inspiration to hopefully motivate you to point the car towards
Encinitas and take it all in. Details below.

That's it and thanks for read...Peter

at the Calypso in Leucadia and it was huge fun. Then they had a
restriction that no amps could be used. They redone the place and we
can plug in. Hurray! We're gearing up the trio to play every other
Monday for hopefully a long stint.
