It’s a wrap!

Hey my friends. Hope things are well in your world. I’m pulling the plug and stepping off the stage, and this time it’s a final step. 
You can overcome a lot of ailments in life but when hearing loss gets to a certain level it’s catastrophic for musicians. I’ve had a great run and had a lot of fun along the way. The past two years were a little rough due to my hearing issues and I wanted to thank Billy Maine for helping me get through. Billy made things easier for me and I’m so grateful  

In 2018 Huey Lewis shut down his career due to severe hearing loss. Hearing aid technology only goes so far. He now spends his time golfing and fly fishing saying, “you don’t need to hear to fish.” 
At this age most everyone has something they’re dealing with. If your reading this I want to express my gratitude for your support. Thank you for your friendship, for putting up with me, and for helping me do something I dreamed of doing since I was about 4 years old. Maybe it’s time to learn to fly fish? Huey let’s do lunch sometime…  
Stay young and healthy friends. 
God bless…

“It takes no more time to see the good side of life than to see the b as f!” - Jimmy Buffett

Speaking of Jimmy Buffett… here is what AI said when I asked who was the opening act for Jimmy Buffett in San Diego in 1992?

Thank you Jimmy. It was in 1977 inside a local San Diego State College hangout called Andy’s Saloon that I first heard Margaritaville on the jukebox. There’s no question that that song helped me move the chess pieces of my life in a new direction! Jimmy’s music hit my soul and within days I was playing his songs in beer joints, and the local yacht clubs of Southern California. A dozen years later I was opening Jimmy’s concert, and 3 years later playing with Jimmy and the Coral Reefer Band in front of 35,000 people. Truly a “hold-your-breath” moment, right?

 Over the past 40 plus years performing has been what has kept me moving forward in life.

Thank you all for the love, support and friendships through all the years.  Looking forward to seeing you soon.
God has truly blessed me.
