From where I live both main Swiss airports are at about equal distance so I usually leave from Zürich since in the past most flights went from Geneva to Zürich before going where the went anyway.
The Organic Blues Unit

While I was checking to see if my old laptop was up and ready to travel, I stumbled on this picture that someone sent me from the concert we did at the Petit Paris last December.
Dave is on the left, Bill on the right and yours truly struggling away on rhythm guitar. From the looks of it, we are in the middle of Hesitation Blues.
The Alps....

Has anyone noticed how before 9-11, there was this TV series and movie trend for plots taking place in a sort of post trauma environment? Everyone out in the dark streets, standing around fires burning in big 55 gallon oil drums, shabby overcoats, gloves with cut off fingers, everything black, dark and grey….
Snow symbol from outer space?

Washboard In The Corner
About two years ago my life was considerably changed by sheer chance: I was asked to replace the rhythm guitarist in a blues trio for a gig in a local bar. Having not touched my guitar in more years than I care to say and with only had two weeks to get ready it was a crazy idea. But my friends, bless them, were insistent and playing music with other people a life long dream so…
It was a disaster waiting to happen…
Blues for the X Mess
