heylo just to say I am back in the internet and setting to work with my PARIS
rig again.. been a couple years more or less, busy playing since I did the
last CD. I did post some video from 2000 on the web (follow links to video
tour journals on my website www.pan.com/folksinger)showing the PARIS on the
road in Alaska, back then I set it up wherever I was at, then for years I
had it in a ford van (recorded a couple tunes in the van when I was in the
boatyard though mostly I snake the cables out to record in a room or wherever,
use the van for a booth) though now I'm setting it up in a back bedroom in
the DC area.
peace

I am at the family house a couple miles south of Alexandria near the river,
I'll still be making the annual Florida to Alaska circuit, but plan to spend
a lot more time here producing new CDs and video, getting back to the internet
and reassessing and updating my web presence. I just can't get it done on
the road. I'm probably installing my 2nd paris card on a new modern mobo,
though mostly to speed up video processing (I've got a rackmount case to
use), and I'm running a couple linux boxes too, mostly for NAS and DVD burning.
Also looking for people to jam with, maybe gig or record with.. the gigging
scene here has always been rather poor, but I'd like to broaden the sound
on the new CDs with ensemble sound and though I could do it myself, well,
there's more energy in jamming, and other artists add their perspective to
the music as well, make me try different things, and there's lots of things
I can't do, not seriously, and I'd rather have the real thing than resort
to using technical faking, even if it is pretty good these days.. I mean
I can do a cello line on the keys and use a good sample, but it still isn't
nearly as good as a cello player who's been dong it all their lives.
