This spring he made excellent pin-badges for my event staff, so I gifted my t-shirt to his daughter. First time I met her 10 years ago… she was a just little school girl, but now she became a super beautiful lady like her mom who is a dancing teacher. WOW, I am so happy that such sweet lady in Paris wears my t-shirt!
Thanks many always, Vincent. See you in LA or Tokyo in the near future!

So I am doing the “Music List Checks” though my Spotify. This is my HAPPIEST times though my event setup jobs in 1 year.
How do I select 80x 2 songs for the show? Good Questions. They are all my “Practice Songs” at my guitar, bass and sax lessons. Example. this evening I am learning the jazz standard “Just Friends” (by Chet Baker).
Our opening song will be “Hey Pocky A-Way” by the Meters! I remember that Jerry Garcia often sang this song. Yep, everybody loves the New Orleans grooves!
See you soon, everybody!
