It's been a whirlwind 2009 so far. As I've thought at so many great concerts - "that was just the first set! There's still a 2nd set coming!"... Who knows what will be in store for the rest of the year... Below is a quick recap of the highlights from the first half!

March 12 - Co-organized and performed "Sounding Support for the System that works", an awareness show for the MD Medical Evacuation Helicopter Fleet at the Sly Fox Pub in Annapolis. Attended by politicians, medical professionals, trauma survivors and supporters, it was emotionally touching as well as politically significant - Our efforts helped defeat bills aimed at dismantling and privatizing MD's role-model system. Thanks to all the volunteers who made it possible!

May 16 - One-Night-Only LUCA reunion show at the 8x10 Club. Great energy and support for the LUCA rock and groove. Awesome to share the stage with these guys again.
