    Just a photo of me from the June Tempo
    Now I am a part of Taos but I am still moving and still trying to make sense of the whole silly process of playing for people. I would think that I would land somewhere sometime but that is not how I am to be remembered.
    Contemporary Review in Taos
    A review of Tony today in Taos. This was a last minute review that was done but it really helped me to get started performing here in Taos. It was done last minute because the person who it was supposed to be about was not available and the deadline was the next day.
    As part of the strike the Black Mesa did not close
    The Black Mesa decided to stay open and used the opportunity to bring a little support as well as a little recognition to CAV in their effort to stand opposite violence and so we did this fund raiser to aid their effort. I believe it also tried to point out that there was a need to counter efforts to counter the administration.
    Chili Line Depot and Tony
    I am still getting the feet forward and looking at the world in a positive way. Her was a restaurant that needed just a little push in the right direction and in the first two years it has become a place that many musicians want to perform. Teddy has stepped forward and done much of the day to day work of making this a place to be.
    I was a little part of the Big Venice Beach at Taos event
    Well talk about crazy this is sure an example. The music and song and dance was everywhere and all day at this event. There were fire dancers jugglers and music everywhere. The second year was even worse because there was more going on, three stages instead of just two but the beat went on.
    Letter from Global Campus
    Letter concerning the performance for 5th year ceremony and work that I have done performing at the Global Campus 5th year ceremony. This highly creative effort started in Thailand where there was no support for individuals wanting to make something for themselves. I tip my hat to Jim and Sherry for the work they do.
    Well I was surprized when Sky handed me the paper with this article in it

    Poster for the Chocolate Church
    This was an event that was not well attended but was in fact an evening of fun and good energy and when I think on it I realize that I with my attitude kept the things that I did positive and now I believe I am older but still doing the same thing. This is really a tribute to what I do and how I do it

    I have been thinking about and looking at some of these things from my perspective of now and I am blown away at the number of people and things that I did in one year. Most of the kids that I played for are adults now and living their lives.
    Poster from Billy Woods Wharf in 1976
    Just a poster from a long ago place where I played. Teddy and I were just starting on our long journey and the owner was so proud because he had the idea and had a successful run with his new experiment. I on the other hand was accepted in the town because I looked like everyone here.
