Anne & I just booked for Philadelphia. We're very excited to see her again.
It's been many years since I've been in Philly and I don't think Anne has ever stayed there so planned a trip from Oct 5th to Oct 11th.

Re: Sue Merlyn Farebrother has passed away
Such very sad, tragic news. We became close to Sue at the Madison event and caught up with her on Hydra in 2015 and I believe in Amsterdam in 2016. We will hold her in our hearts now and remember the great times together. I will always appreciate the honor of playing guitar for her (per Jarkko's &am...

Martha Wainwright Memoir
I wasn't sure where to put this, but Martha Wainwright has released a memoir titled, "Stories I May Regret Telling You." Those of you who went to Hydra in 2002 surely remember Martha who accompanied Lorca Cohen to the event. Martha wasn't one of the featured performers as the organizers di...

Kenneth Forsyth has passed away.
Those of us who knew him are terribly heartbroken tonight. Anne & I first met him on Hydra in 2002. He was a very special man, witty, down to earth and loyal to those who became his friends. I would like to say so much more about him, but RIP Kenneth you very dear man-you will always be a bright...

Re: Leonard Cohen, Untold Stories: The Early Years
I finished Michael Posner's "This Broken Hill" volume 2 of his biography yesterday. I didn't enjoy it as much as the first volume probably because much of it was spent on reports from old girl friends describing how they had slept with him (or claimed to) and a smaller number who declared ...

Thank you, WITS-that was beautiful! If I'm correct it is only available for the next day or two. I highly urge everyone to experience these lovely Canadian covers of Leonard's work.

I've recently received these recordings in beautiful packaging from a fellow Forum member. The Berkeley Community Theater concert was just 16 days after the concert in Madison that Anne & I attended (Separately-we wouldn't meet for two years). It is a beautiful recording and sends us back in tim...
