Great to see you again, Sharc. Glad you are doing so well.
It looks like I'll be seeing you sooner than later.
See you at the Brand X show. Too close to home to not go.

Marc and Kurt,

Next time you are planning a gathering let me know and I will try and coordinate to be there too.

Hello Kurt, have you figured out who I am yet?

Here is a hint,

I am portly and I am double stitched, can you guess what I am?

Masque

I happened to be in Sonoma Co.
.. and was able to meet up with Masque
.. a couple of "beers" and much faffing about music...

QuantumJo and his wife dropped by my home yesterday. We listened to the moon, drank Guinness, had some good conversation and grilled up some steaks. ...and the one thing I didn't do is get a picture.

Nice one Vax
I have a pic of me with Jim and Gort in San Diego.
cannot figure out how to upload the image... frustrating.

I've known Jim for ~10 years now. We have exchanged many emails and we chat most every day but I've only "spoken" to him once on a brief phone call.
It was a unique experience to finally physically meet (and talk to) him.
Unfortunately his trip started with a 5 hour flight delay followed by lost luggage and passport and a less than helpful airline and US Consulate Office.
And then the New York Rangers lost to the Winnipeg Jets .

His lost things were thankfully found and returned. We got out for a bit of sightseeing before coming over for supper on Saturday.
Timber was supplied with ample treats and he mostly warmed up to him (except when Jim left the room on his own, then there was concern!).
My wife Sharon cooked us a delicious roast beef dinner and we had apple pie and ice cream for dessert followed by a too short visit because Jim had a 6am flight home.
Jim brought the flowers you see in the background.

If you want to email it to me, I can upload it. jimkbrennan@gmail.com if you don't already have it...

I told JIM that AM has made for some of us something huge, beyond the pure music,which by itself is already a huge huge thing (I speak for me and a few ones that shared it with me this through the years)
I see these pictures and I only can say happy for both of you, I know the connection,,,and happy for all the community in this place.

Edit 31-Dec-2022 ... attached are some pictures of Jim visiting Mario earlier this year.

[mariocc]

Thank you very very much amigo ART !
The first one is my sweet Pedrita and our progdirjim of course;
the following picture is another Jim s new 'chilean friend'
Now,,, us and my good friends : to the left of Jim is German Vergara,,band leader of Aisles; to my left a great piano player ,Sergio aka 'wrongchord' which is totally false,,immensely talented; and front us Francisco.
Aisles and Francisco are in library.
The last one,,well,,your moonfriends of course in the tasting room of a well known vineyard; Jim enjoyed a lot that place. Great connoisseur of course. I dont drink wine so I assume it was fine for my friend. It was a nice time.

[mariocc]

I dont have social media accounts so, I dont know if JIM has posted some pictures on Facebook, Instagram etc.
I felt and I feel honored by his visit; the guy has always a friendly smile,,highly recommended as a friend

A highlight this 2022.
