Billy’s Be Singin’ @ Starving Artist Cafe (2pm – 4pm)
I’ll be sitting in on a song or two with my friends Bill Barnat, John Norton, and Billy Aronson behind the mic at the Starving Artist Cafe in Stockton. There will be a handful of other guests, so I’m not sure what to expect. But it’ll be fun to catch up with the “Blenders” crowd once again and have a few laughs while taking in the day. This event is free and open to the public. Feel free to stop by, say hello, sing along, and enjoy the assortment of eats the cafe has to offer.

Sail On My Friend – “Rob Mehl”
I will miss you my friend! So many significant memories that it would take pages to just summarize the highlights … thank you for your music, Rob Mehl!
Note: I will be putting together a Rob Mehl Tribute page that describes my history with Rob and what impact he had on these trips around the sun.

Argos Farm Website Appearance
While chatting with a friend, he was commenting on taking the family to Argos Farm. While visiting the website to research the list of activities Argos Farm has to offer, he said, “Do you know you appear in website’s advertisement video?” Well, what do you know … there I am. The footage and photo above is back from the Fall of 2023 when I did a gig with Josh. But please, take in the clip and watch as many times as you like. On the website it loops! LOL 🙂
