Don't have much online these days JJ other than a "My Space" site which is under perpetual construction.
Things are moving along quite well for me though now that I'm back living in Toronto. Really can't complain about anything.
The afternoon farmers markets are the ones I try and get booked on mainly because my "pipes" seem to open wide till later in the afternoon.
Morning voice doesn't serve me well.
Farmers markets are very popular venues and the fact that they prefer easy listening tunes gives me the opportunity to play lots of Gord.
Good thing is because of their gain in popularity they are springing up pretty much all over the country and in big cities as well.
Lots of great organic food choices together with all the seasonal produce brought in by local farmers is a huge draw. These folks are very dedicated and they work very hard but they all say "we love the work!" Now doesn't that sound familiar?
This week I have "City Place Market" on Tuesday and on Thursday the "East Lynn Market."
We need at least one day off between markets as they usually run four hours and sometimes that can be taxing on the fingers. Good thing is the way John Laroque has my guitars set the fingers seem to "weather the storm."
