The 2nd through the 4th were the FAR-West conference. Folk music like crazy... Artichoke took me as an 'ambassador', and I would say that we did a good job representing. We had probably the most traffic at our table and the crowd at the post conference event at Artichoke's Back Gate Stage was great.
I would have to say that as a musician, it was the most rewarding experience of my life. Next year is in Phoenix, and I'm definitely going to be there. I put together an audio 'report' of my experience at the conference.

I recorded my showcase session also, it's good to have the feedback.

Several gigs filled the week since then, ending tonight with my live television debut performance at Ethos Music Center -a very cool non-profit dedicated to teaching kids music.
I was told that the show makes it into 440,000 living rooms. That means my odds are pretty good that at least somebody will see it.
I've got to find someone who can record the show on it's rebroadcast, otherwise I might have to wait months for a copy.
