Testing, Check 1…
Greetings Visitor,
We are working out the bugs on the newly updated website which includes this new (to me) blogging format.
So hold on while we get this thing headed in the right direction. We switched over to a PayPal system in the site’s store but will be reverting back to the previous system soon. It didn’t seem right that people who wanted to pay with a credit card should have to start a PayPal account just to buy a record or songbook.
The main creative project at the moment is a DVD which should be out this summer. The final format is still being worked out but I can tell you it will be very high quality video and audio. The main part of the DVD is a performance of 19 songs recorded live without an audience at a theatre in Los Angeles. The players and singers include: Michael Manring on bass, Russ Rentler on mandolin, Amilia Spicer on vocals, and Susan Werner on guitar, piano and vocals. I’m in there as well playing and singing as you might expect. I will post the set list when that is finalized. The DVD is entitled “The Gypsy Life” and the band’s working name is “The Godfrey Daniels Spasm Band”. Anyway, I’ll sign off now and get this up on the site.
The thing I like about this new deal is that when I’ve realized I’ve said something stupid I can delete it or correct it without too much trouble. I can then replace it with something new that I’ll eventually come to regret…
My current mantra is:”No one is above criticism or beyond redemption”.
All for now — John G.
