Harry Manx and Dawn Campbell

DUNEGRASS FESTIVAL- Empire Michigan
Sunburn city...........................o'yeah......


I'm a new fan of Harry Manx - he's been around for quite a while I guess, really, what the hell do I know about anything anyway. Cripes there's only 24 hours n the day, ya'know.

Anyway, lots of his CDs available on-line - Nice website - fantastic picker. Dobro, slide, and zillion-stringed Indian guitar. Wow. Here's a clip.................btw, I rode out to Empire and back today, sorry not fg tho, a bit too hilly, and I was trying to make good time. 2007 Symp attendees will remember the route out to Glen Have and know why I rode geared.


Anyway, once I got back around 6pm and upload Monday's bikes, it was time for the closing party for the Traverse City Film Festival right here on the lawn outside my window. Michael Moore, Madonna (nope, sorry she was her last night and gone today) tho Katy has been the house manager for the State Theatre (midnight shift till 2 am) and she actually saw Madonna last night at the premier for her new docmentary - Katy was not exactly thrilled as you might imagine) - anyway the closing party was tonight - Ken and Sara Heike form OK City arrived early for the Faux-Symp and attended tho they seemed to disappear a bit early -- they flew in today - a little jet lag Ken?

Anyway, if you look at Hell-Yes and see Colin wearing the One World Army Tee - this is his mom singing at the party - o'yes, it's his mom.............Dawn Campbell - she totally rocks it out, eh?

o sorry to ramble a bit, it's 12:13 and I've been up since 8 and too much vodka (again) from Grand Traverse Distillery http://www.grandtraversedistillery.com/
These youtube videos are taking so long to upload I might have to go over to Left Foot Charley's for the afterglow - look-out boys, it's just a few wine chasers.

See ya, have a great week.....................................
