Dear Friends,
I just wanted to say a big “thank you” to Harry & Ann Bickel, Ken & Sheila Pyle, Curtis Burch, Steve Cooley, Jeff Autry, Shad Cobb, Bryon Larrance, John Frazier, & the members of “Relic”.
Some of ya’ll know that we put on a free show Friday night in Louisville Ky. @ Rudyard Kipling’s. After the last 6 or so weeks of kicking, fighting, & punching surrounding The Bluegrass Hotel, this evening went a long way towards putting music in it’s proper perspective. There was much laughter, great pickin’ and perhaps even a little healing in this wondrous night. Louisville, and Kentucky, remind me once again of why and how this music (and all it’s glorious forms) was created. In dignity, creativity, and in the service and spirit of the better part of our human condition.
We also “passed the hat” and will be making a contribution to the American Cancer Society which, after all, was what this was all about.
Sincerely,
John E Cowan
