May 2009 into sept

So I am now playing steel on the road with Wayne Hancock. I came in as an emergency sub and ended up taking the full time position. Its a super fun gig playing with some great musicians. Wayne is the real deal when it comes to this scene. So far its been a joy for me. I'll be touring pretty constantly so keep an eye out for him and you will see me soon. I am also moving to Austin Tx as my home base. I will miss Brooklyn and my friends there. I love my little neighborhood of Red Hook. Austin is looking pretty sweet also.
