GREAT NEWS - I've been nominated as performer of the year at True Chip Till Death!
I had some great shows in Chicago, New York and Philly last year. LINK TO THE NONIMATION
(wow, I was also nominated for Album and Artist of the Year!)
congrats to the deserving winners (ie, not me hahaha)
Let's make this the best year EVER!
Once I spoke the language of the flowers,
Once I understood each word the caterpillar said,
Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings,
And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed.
Once I heard and answered all the questions of the crickets,
And joined the crying of each falling dying flake of snow,
Once I spoke the language of the flowers. . . .
How did it go?
How did it go?
