Steve, I was a fan, been forever since I listened to them/her though. Did you know Lone Justice is just came out with a "new" album recently? It's actually a old set of recordings though....still nice.

^^ After decades of loving them, I finally got to see them 2 years ago. Will also see them later this year too. Me: went to a nearby town's annual Multi-Cultural Festival. What a time! Great people, gifts, food, and music. Had very good Indian street food, bought a small sculpture from Zimbabwe and mini-paintings from France (now relocated here, a follower of Daniel Venjean). Saw music from people who are from Mexico, Guatemala, Venezuela, India, Africa, and Haiti. Wonderful time was had, met a few very nice people and had some nice chats with the vendors and some of the musicians. Some pics. In the 5th pic where the Indian woman is dancing, the guy in the red and yellow shirt is a good friend, known him since i was in my lower to mid single-digits. He is the drummer for the African band fronted by the man next to him, seen in the next two after that. For one of the bands, there were two couples - one with a child - who did some very nice salsa dancing!

Not sure if the best place to post, but WTH.... Some background, because I write too much: one of my favorite people in my work life lives in New Zealand. When I and others helped on an ERP project implementation, he sent us a wonderful thank you note, along with a down vest of the company and a polo shirt from the All Blacks team. I've always loved to see videos of Haka's and the like. Also was just a big sucker for and lover of the movie Whale Rider. This one hit in the feels a bit. A lovely tribute to Mฤori culture by a Grammar School chorus. Bit of the story behind it: https://www.themusicman.uk/maori-culture-choir-celebration/

Up in Maine, found out my next door neighbor went to the ER for a bad nosebleed. Visited her there, ended up keeping her company for almost 3 hours. Brought her home, then dog-watched these wonderful pups (2 Samoyeds and a 5-month old Golden - I THINK it's a blend with something else, l but not sure). At one point, she had 4 full-grown Samoyeds in her ~1100 sq ft condo!! She saw an ENT last night in Portland Maine and he helped a lot more than the local ER.....will find out today of the final prognosis & plan.

Cara Dillon - After The Morning. A tender and beautiful voice, wonderful songs, several nice ballads with a touch of traditional Irish sound/instruments. Great for a mellow Sunday morning. Sample:

Thanks for posting that Grahame! I was thinking of putting a fan in my master BR, and was looking loosely into those Fandelier concepts too.... Think I would just do a smaller normal one as well.....I do like the second one a lot!

Same here, Dan. He came to my college and gave an incredible speech in his active days. But yes, in later years something switched off..... I still look to his earlier legacy as good.

Amused..... Several things stand out to me: They spent ten years getting it wrong, and now it's right? This ultimate peak seems like the intro to CD: perfect sound forever Japanese Hipster Marketers naming it "Collexion" does NOT resonate Japanese Hipster Engineers have funny hats ๐

RIP to my aunt, Gladys "Goldie" Schultz, 87. She was an amazing woman, very calm and logical, yet with a deep compassion and a wonderfully dry sense of humor (I was recently told she was a tiny bit on the spectrum, makes sense now). She was an early woman in tech, mother of 3 wonderful kids, and so much more. She will be missed....and my dad is now the last living person from that generation.... She now joins her husband, my Uncle Ron.

Hope itโs an awesome day and much more!!
