I was trying to get Steve Grimes and got your website. WOW! Craig what a great site you have–your musical history right here!
Bill and I will definitely be going on September 1 to hear you all play at Pt. Townsend. Do you know if the tickets are on sale yet?
God bless you today, Craig. Nancy
Dear Nancy, thank you so much for the encouragement. The Mojo Gumbo listing was for 2009. Not sure when they will return again. Maybe we should all go to Maui to hear them? Here is where you can get the former CD: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/mojogumbo not sure when the new one (with my sax parts) will be ready. all the best, cb
