four days off

I had over 4 days off over this thanksgiving holiday and i was able to get a lot of time of the music making machine.. new arrangements of percussion ensembles, a few new singles, and 2 new steel drum band arrangements... not bad for an old guy.

i also got to help jaimie set her gigmasters page for her band (Island shores steel drum band) out of KC. I wish i could have started when she is starting and had the tunes that she has. she also has located some other players in the KC area which should be fun for her. pretty sure she can get some good gigs...maybe she will hire ME now.

Thanksgiving energy

Got a boost of energy lately (maybe because of Thanksgiving) and did a few new arrangements. mostly Christmas oriented due to the time of year, but also some new single playalongs including "Pan in A minor". i really like that tune and it could be one of my new favs.

working to get my daughters steel drum band "Island steel" off the ground and running...seems like she has decided that she is ready to gig.
