    Thanks.

    And now it's back to MY reality: playing the subway wherein 95% of people will be so lost in their digital reveries as to not notice me. Yesterday I stayed down there for 5 hours---playing and repeating Tomorrow, I Just Called to Say I Love You, etc.---to make $40 (in fairness, I DID sell one CD). I SWEAR I'd rather they HATED my music than to consider me a slab of wood as they do----that would indicate a real human with real feelings. Every once in a while I get a quizzical glance from an under-40---as in 'WTF is THIS dinosaur doing? Then they slither away---at typical NY speed---going nowhere in a hurry.

    I guess the world has passed me by. But I'm not going there (though I just did). Gonna keep my chin up and do it. AGAIN...

    Mike McKoy? Oh, I knew him quite well. I used to turn up at his gigs and chat outside the caff in the Brighton Lanes. Nice player. He was up at the Uni then. Last I heard, many moons ago, he'd made a CD that won an award. Something like that.

    You're not him, are you? Can't tell from your vid but the voice is vaguely familiar possibly. I think he/you wore big glasses in those days, could be wrong.

    Nice version, btw.
