I finally listened to the J&C podcast that we did some weeks ago. Here is the link: http://jconline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?category=PODCASTS
Surprisingly enough, I didn't think we sounded too much like idiots!! On my computer the sound was a little squiggly, I don't know if it was just my computer or if it came out that way. Anyway, fun times!
And CONGRATULATIONS to Kim who made his first blog post the other day!! Hooraaaaay!

More Shows and A Few Minor Details
(Hello, it's Kim's first post.)
This Saturday's show at the Delphi Public Library begins at 7:00. We will be joined by George Buechley on 12 string guitar and dobro (!!!) and Ian Thompson (check out his recording/rehearsal space/music lessons studio, The Vaults, in downtown Lafayette) on bass. We are also being billed as (forgive us) Hoot and Annie.
Friday's date at the Klein Brot Haus is actually 10/26 and I think it might just be me (no Annie) all alone. We will be back at the Klein Brot Haus on November 9.
Halloween night (oooH), October 31, I'm playing with Jacob Sunderlin and Megan Wells at the Skylight Coffee House 7-9. It's an evening of Lou-grass. All Velvet Underground and Lou Reed songs. So put on your dark glasses and be there.
And there's a new west side Java Roaster, at the corner of Robinson and Salisbury. We will be there Friday, November 2 from 6-8.
And last, for now, but not least, there's a brand new coffee shop opening this Friday, October 19, on upper Main Street, next to Randy Ross' framing gallery and across from the wine and cheese shop. With very good coffee. I will be in musical residency on Thursdays from 5-7. Hopefully with Annie and other friends sitting in more often than not. So come check it out.

Music for Middle-Schoolers
This morning I (Annie) was honored with the title of "guest composer" in the music room at St. Boniface middle school. The 4th, 5th and 6th graders are learning about composers and Mrs. Hasser the music teacher has broken away from the thought that "composer"= "classical" (="boring" to most kids that age.) It was a real treat! I played 3 original songs and one non-original song to give them all a taste of Bob Dylan, and they were SO attentive and interested. They asked really great questions and were so easy to talk to. Some were more interested in the music writing process while others showed more interest in the performing aspect of songwriting, but everyone was so great! I gave Kim all the credit where it was due, going on about how HE taught me how to play banjo and mandolin and more good songs than I ever would've learned on my own, etc.
So anyway, it was an interesting morning and a really fun experience.
In performance news, we might have a November 2nd date coming up; I'll keep you posted.
