Monday night at Kulaks.  Daniel, Joe, Sherrie, Lisa, regulars and newbies, irregulars,dogs, frogs and stars.

Left handed guitars, harmonics, and duets.  Rick Taylor sings Lisa's song. Subjects like loss, the war, love, and humor.

You can see these great artists, pay as you go from Pay Pal, and be at home getting ready for taxes.

You can hear licks and harmonies and never mind the winter rains.

Check out Paul Kulak's Woodshed for live or on the web performances.

NAMM Educator's breakfast featured teachers to visionaries, administrators to policy makers.  One thing is sure the meeting was on track and on purpose.

It began with an eye on the prize- an eye ball showing a young trumpet player reflected in the eye of the beholder.

The vision :playing music in K-12 and getting all children involved!

From a welcoming address speaking to No Child Left Behind and School Standards to commentary by professionals, the teachers were welcomed with info, breakfast, goody bag, and touring map to find out how everyone could work together on behalf of music education and move forward in 2008.

Go NAMM!  It's easy to be a fan of such a dynamic vision for success at school and at play.  For more information, go to their website. 

NAMM returns to Anaheim. Watch for collaboration and new lines of product. From professionals to nonprofits, from international trade to the Remo Drum circle, the players and stores flock to this fabulous followup of the Rose Parade to trade, show and perform.

Annual happening. Awesome event. Bravo Joe Lamond and Scott Robinson, Boards, major exhibitors, researchers and analysts.

Music has more than gone electronic. It has found ways to drive the market, protect the content, distribute print and video, and build solid jobs across the nation. It has promoted health, wellness, and creativity.

It has manufactured, innovated, developed colleagues and created business in roads.

Welcome back, welcome home.
