This week

This week at my two open mic nights at the Flatiron and the Garage, I played "Lucky," which is another of my favourite Britney Spears songs, and I debuted a new original called "Will U," which will be recorded and uploaded within the next few days along with a few other songs.

Also at the Garage, a Lexington-based heavy metal band called Resist rocked the house with a few original songs plus covers of hits by KISS and Judas Priest to name a few artists.  It was one of the greatest performances that I've ever witnessed at all of my open mics.

That performance was followed by Vel Indica (a pop-rock band from Winston-Salem that features one of my dear friends, Partick Ferguson, on lead vocal and guitar) and Country Dan Collins.  Dan, who host the Garage's open mic every Wednesday night, arrived late because he had to cover a Wake Forest game for the Winston-Salem Journal.  He's a sports commentator as well as a great singer/songwriter.

Next week, I won't be performing at all because of the Thanksgiving holiday.  However, click on the "Coming Events" link for future performance dates.
