oy vey oy vey,

the geebah is late again. i'm pretty sure no one expected the precision of a swiss clock from something named the geebah, published by me and related to dreamspspeak. still a boy can dream and i dream of making my own deadline. some day the geebah will come out every weds morning like clockwork, swiss. for now, col is working with uncle nate at oracle fest down in soma and my mother arrives tonight. she is here for 2 days on her way to china. so, there's my wailing about my flailing.

oy vey,

sorry, for the delay in getting out the geebah. i had some things causing me shplilkachas in my tuchas. my tuchas is fine but the geebah is delayed and, of course, there are some brand new gigs that you will likely hear about after the gig. you in the back stop with the the snickering, a little sympathy for my travails.

hey all,

hope you are all well. we had a great last 2 shows at ironstone this weekend. sold out our last show w/ csn! then i had a strange, solitary celebration of roshashona on sunday. it'd take a few drinks to explain it. what i can tell you is that, i have definitely started a new tradition for myself, the roshashona bloody mary. it is spicy and pint sized. more of cohen's yidishkite later.

Hey Folks,

Big News!! Announcing the re-launch of Dreamspeak.com!!! Hooray!! Luke has completely overhauled Dreamspeak.com. He has employed a new web hosting system. The new system gives the site lots of cool features-blogs, forums, polls, podcasts and, of course, we have tunes, photos and gigs on the site. With this new system, anyone, who wants to, can have an account at Dreamspeak.com and, can post to the site.

Got an iPod or an iPhone? Here's something fun: we have a podcast now! It's been there since the beginning, but you probably wouldn't have guessed that the icon under "Random Audio" was actually a link to a podcast feed. So, I've renamed it "The Dreamspeak Podcast" to make it more obvious. Here's the link:

I'm working on getting a gig calendar functioning here. There are currently two ways to get to it. First, you've probably noticed the little calendar on the upper-right corner. The main problem right now is that instead of showing gigs on their performance dates, it's showing EVERY bit of content entered on the system, on the entry dates! There's another view of the calendar you can check out, that is showing the correct info: (http://www.dreamspeak.com/?q=date-browser) - if necessary, we can just put a link to that from the home page.

Greetings! A new era has begun. After an extended period of...umm..."rest" we have now moved Dreamspeak.com to a new hosting system. This gives us lots and lots of new toys to play with - blogs and forums and polls and ways to host music (including podcasts!) and tons of other stuff. So stay tuned, and come back often. It's a brand new day.

wow, i am blogging. i have threatened to blog before. i have been cajoled about blogging, encouraged. i have not before blogged. wow, now i am blogging at dreamspeak.com.

dreamspeak.com is becoming. Dreamspeak is becoming. you gotta love it. what will be, no one knows. i am excited. not yet ready to say too much, but i am excited about this Dreamspeak new media. i am excited to write to people. i am excited for things to happen.

Hey All,

How's back to school for all of you parents? Teacher Dad and his star pupil are trying to get it in gear over here. Wish us luck. We had a great show up at Ironstone on Sun and are gearing up for our Finale Weekend, Skynyrd & Los Lonely Boys (9/18) then CSN(9/19). Maybe we'll see some of you up in Gold Country sometime. We'd love to.
