The T-shirt is wonderful, David! And I'm so glad your set at the Fillmore
went so well. Thirty years ago did you ever, in your wildest dreams, imagine
you'd be playing a set at the Fillmore? Amazing!
  

    

I've played the Fiillmore a few times, but yeah.  It was a wild dream back
then.

I'm going to be on Robbie Osman's show on KPFA today, approximately 12:15-
12:45, playing anti-war, anti-Bush and anti-drug-war songs, including the
brilliant "George Bush" by Lemon Juju.

I'll also be plugging <dlee>'s excellent I WANT MY COUNTRY BACK bumper stick-
ers, http://www.dleepow.us/CountryBack.html
  

    
oh, i'll be sure to tune in to that wonderful bit of radio......

<smooch!>
  

    

It was great.  He announced his plan to distribute voter registration forms
at his shows.  To take our country back and legalize weed too.
  

    
go david go!
  

    
Now I gotta figure out how to get voter registration cards from every county
I play in...
  

    


Saturday, April 5:  Jefff Pehrson of Box Set + David Gans
Oakland Metro, 201 Broadway, Oakland
Showtime 9:00 pm



I will have voter registration forms for anyone who is interested.
  

    



I did an interview with writer Shaun Dale stdale@well.com)  when I was
in Seattle a couple of weeks ago.  It's just been posted in Cosmik
Debris - http://www.cosmik.com/

Take a look!
  

    

Nice promotional montage produced by Ken Eberhard at Studio E in Sebastopol
CA:

Nice David!
  

    

It'sfrom a full-length concert DVD that will come out some day.  Paperwork
hell right now.
  

    
Paperwork hell how?  Sounds like you may be learning something practical for
artists and writers in general, perhaps?
  

    

No, just waiting for one particular publisher to deal with the music
licenses.  I hear today that the work is done, and the DVD will be out in
June.
  

    
Congrats.
  

    
Indeed.
  

    


This just in: Jerry Lawson of the Persuasions is going to sing with me in
Phoenix!
