I've been pleased to see so many visitors over the months and days, but no comments are left.  Is it offensive to find bluegrass news juxtaposed to needy singletude?  Let me know.  Give opinion, please.

New One-Event Jam

Nick & I've been invited to host an evening jam on Wednesday, June 3rd at the Glendale Foothills Public Library between Union Hills and the 101 on 57th Ave.  Free! Free! Free!

The fun starts at 6:30 and ends as the place closes close to 8.  Our Foothills jams (mentioned below) have grown to a nice group of around ten or so musicians and singers who are so dependable and quick, Nick and I probably jam with them two to four times a month.  That often and you're bound to get comfortable with each other's tunes.

I Now Have My Own Jam... Again...And Again

Nicky and I have inherited another jam!  Rick R. who hosted the Knights of Columbus Jam discussed below, couldn't reliably attend anymore and offered the stewardship of it to us.  It draws better musicians than your average jam and the beer is only $1.50 a stein!  Life is good!

I co-host a jam with blind Nicky Nicastro, classically trained fiddler and it is gaining steam.  It's a jam described below, the Foothills Library jam has been passed from

Perils and Pleasures: #3 Part 3 The Final Days of O.

Petra had never gotten to the stage of coming to meet me.  O was the first.  I would later recognize 'Coming to meet you!'  as the final stages of what have come to be the most thrilling relationships I've ever had though none consummated.  I would rate these above my one and only actual marriage for steamy romance.

Perils and Pleasures Continued #3 O Part 2:

To get the most from these correspondence, I would start with part #1, #2 and then this:

After the way I lost Petra, her repeated flakey behavior of not writing for days one week and again once I said I didn't know how I would afford to travel to her nor did I think a marriage proposal was appropriate for our first meeting, I suspected that her and a scamming business were a very strong probability.  Although I kept reminding myself not to get in too deep, I just could not resist the passionate words and strange grammar that made this all the more believable.  In their defense, when I began studying Russian language, I discovered they either don't use pronouns or must use them differently.
