October: best tour ever! My October southeast tour was a delight from start to finish (with one minor blip*). I played my favorite festival (MagnoliaFest), broke into some new markets, made some of the best music of my career, and had the opportunity to play with many great musicians. I played live with: Caroline Aiken and Satoshi Ueda, Ralph Roddenbery, and Mark van Allen (Decatur GA 10/13); Joe Craven and Mark van Allen (Athens GA 10/14); New Riders of the Purple Sage (MagnoliaFest 10/20); The Waybacks Joe Craven, and Bryn Davies (MagnoliaFest 10/21); Peter Rowan and Tony Rice (MagnoliaFest 10/22); Donna the Buffalo (MagnoliaFest 10/22); and New Riders of the Purple Sage and Mark van Allen (Atlanta 10/24). I also collaborated with Arvid Smith on a looping workshop for the third time (MagnoliaFest 10/20). I've posted some audio and video highlights in various places (all linked from http://www.dgans.com/tunes.html too, of course): VIDEO: "Afterbird" - Satoshi Ueda and DG at Eddie's Attic 10/14/06 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JmRacBZjaY Mark van Allen and DG doing "River and Drown" at the same show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEFsva_3itk "Vassar's Dream" - Joe Craven and DG 10/14/06 at the Melting Point, Athens GA http://grouper.com/video/MediaDetails.aspx?id=1608337 AUDIO: "Positive Friction" - Donna the Buffalo and DG 10/22/06 MagnoliaFest mainstage http://dgans.com/audio/DTB-DG_061022.mp3 DG with Mark van Allen on pedal steel at Smith's Olde Bar in Atlanta 10/24/06, opening for the New Riders of the Purple Sage. Jon Buffington's audience recording of the whole set: http://www.archive.org/details/dg2006-10-24..flac *** I'm off the road for the rest of the year, I'm pretty sure. I am hoping to finish a CD of loop-based instrumentals, titled CLOUD SURFING, by mid- December. Stay tuned. *** There may be some more Bay Area gigs in the near future, but as of this moment there are only three confirmed dates: Sunday, November 12 HOUSE CONCERT - JIM PAGE and DAVID GANS Forestville CA. Starts at 3pm. Jim Page is a true hero to me, a great songwriter and a committed humanitarian. We've played many shows together in the last several years; I just love his music, so I always look forward to working with him. I'll be backing him up for part of his set, too. More info: http://www.myspace.com/seattlejimpage This house concert is taking place in a wonderful space, a hay bale studio at Roger Karraker's home in Forestville, California. I'm thrilled to be doing a show with Jim here, and I hope you all will join us. Email Roger Karraker ( rkarraker@gmail.com ) to reserve a ticket. Download this flyer and spread the word! http://www.trufun.com/061112.pdf Also in Sonoma County in November, the third performance by the Honky Tonk Hippies. Thursday, November 16, 9pm: Honky Tonk Hippies and Stevie Coyle (of the Waybacks) at the Last Day Saloon, 120 Fifth St. @ Davis St., Santa Rosa CA. $5 advance, $7 day of show. 707-545-2343 We'll have my old friend Jennifer Jolly on keys this time - she did great work on the 1997 CD I did with Eric Rawlins, HOME BY MORNING, and she also played with the Broken Angels in '97 and '98. I'm delighted to have her with us. David Phillips will be on pedal steel again, and Joshua Zucker will play bass. Drummer TBA. And in December, right here in my home town: Friday, December 22, 7-9:30pm: DG, Mario DeSio, and Mokai at the Nomad Cafe, 6500 Shattuck Ave (at 65th Street), Oakland CA. Admission is free, but you have to buy a coffee and/or some food. As always, stay tuned to http://www.dgans.com/gigs.html for the latest news on live performances. -- * Regarding that "minor blip." There was a sound guy in Birmingham, Alabama who refused to allow me to record my set from the sound board. "I'm a professional sound engineer," he declared, "and I don't allow recordings of my mixes to circulate." He was quite a dick about it, and came this close to threatening to mess up my sound if I persisted in arguing with him about it. I refrained from telling him that I've been playing music in public longer than he has been alive and this is the first time I have ever been refused a board patch to record my own performance. (There are two venues I've played where the sound guy tried to charge money for that audio connection, but I managed to avoid that bit of extortion.) It's always a little weird to run into people who insist upon abusing some tiny bit of power they have in the world; all the real professional sound people I have dealt with over the years have been much more friendly to, and supportive of, the musicians whose work they are an essential part of delivering to the audience. Not that big a deal, but young Blake Loveless was unpleasant enough, and his attitude unusual enough, to make the episode noteworthy. Aside from that, the gig at Zydeco with Earthbound was a pleasure.

"Ran Into God" from the 11/12 show: http://gdhour.com/logblog/?p=273 (the song formerly known as "If Only I Existed") RAN INTO GOD David Gans © 2006 Whispering Hallelujah (BMI) I ran into God a coupla weeks ago Sittin at the bar just before my show She looks exactly like a female version of me. Its uncanny. We got to talkin about thisn'that. Her heart is broken; shes been laid out flat Things just didnt work out the way she planned She said, I liked you people better when the wheel was high-tech Youre gonna leave this place a smokin wreck I said to her, What the hell are you lookin at me for? I recycle. She said, In my imagination this was built to last It makes me sad to see you use it up so fast Driving your Belchfires til the air falls out of the sky It pisses me off to see my intentions twisted Id kick some foolish ass if only I existed She said, I love people more than I probably should They got some wack-ass ideas about evil and good Compassions out of fashion all around the world Fundies with their undies in a permanent twist Dont they know the heathen have a right to exist Human nature cannot be denied (and shouldnt have to) I meant to lay down the law but I got stoned and missed it Id forgive my own sins if only I existed God said, Ive been the victim of identity theft Spiritual robber barons right and left Ridin to church on Sunday in their stretch humvees Telling everybody who to fear and loathe Never mind the people they could feed and clothe And claimin that the namin of their demons is the word of me They keep callin even though my phones unlisted Id leave them a message if only I existed Some think Im like Geppetto with a whittling knife Crafting each and every individual life Its such a narcissistic notion of the way things work (And who they work for) I made this world youre ridin on in less than a day Ive cranked out several million, each unique in its way Set em down and put em in spin, and gave nature the deed Faith is trying to snuff out reason and youve got to resist it Id give you some help with that if only I existed I ran into God a coupla weeks ago Sittin at the bar just before my show She looks exactly like a female version of me

Happy solstice! And gig update Greetings, and happy solstice to all! It's chilly and wet here in the Bay Area, but we're snug in our living room with two happy cats, and all is well. Below you will find news of some imminent gigs here at home. In January I'm heading east to play a few shows and do some recording with the Shockenaw Mountain Boys (Tim Carbone, John Skehan, Andy Goessling, and Johnny Grubb of Railroad Earth). As you can probably imagine, I'm thrilled to be heading into he studio with these fine players. Tim is producing, by the way, and we have one record label interested in maybe funding a full-length CD with this lineup. Keep yer fingers crossed! * I have spent a good deal of time this month working on some promotional clips for an upcoming Grateful Dead release, "Live at the Cow Palace, New Year's Eve 1976." You can see the clips at http://www.dead.net/cpstream - and tune in to that URL on New Year's Eve and New year's Day to hear the full show "on demand." I was at this concert, and I have heard Jeffrey Norman's mix of the multitrack tapes - it's a good 'un! * While I was working on that project, I unearthed some of my photos of the Dead and Santana from that show. My friend John Rottet scanned the negatives, along with some others from my stash, and I have posted the best of them on my <http://flickr.com/photos/dgans/>flickr page. Go there and you'll see Bonnie Raitt smooching Norton Buffalo! Maria Muldaur playing fiddle! Levon Helm and Richard Manuel of The Band! http://flickr.com/photos/dgans/ * Okay, here are the performances I have confirmed so far. There will probably be more shows in the Four Corners area in February, and a southwest tour before and.or after SpringFest. You'll find the latest at http://www.dgans.com/gigs.html Friday, December 22, 7-9:30pm: DG, Mario deSio, and Mokai at the Nomad Cafe, 6500 Shattuck Ave (at 65th Street), Oakland CA. Admission is free, but you have to buy a coffee and/or some food. http://www.nomadcafe.net Thursday, January 4, 8:30pm: Henfling's Tavern, 9450 Hwy 9, Ben Lomond CA.

Greetings and Happy New Year to all! The calendar for 2007 is starting to fill in. This week I'm playing Henflings in Ben Lomond CA and the Grand Lake Farmers' Market in Oakland; nest week I head for New Jersey and Connecticut. More dates will be posted as they're confirmed - including a possible trip to England for some gigs in July! Status of my recording projects: Next week I go to New Jersey to record a few songs with Tim Carbone of Railroad Earth ( http://www.railroadearth.com )producing and playing fiddle, and bandmates John Skehan, Andy Goessling and Johnny Grubb playing along. There is a record label that might be interested in a full CD - let's hope they like the demo! My other CD project, "Cloud Surfing," is on hold while the producer, Jim LeBrecht, concentrates on his day job. Jim is a movie sound designer ( http://www.berkeleysoundartists.com ), and this is the time of year when all the independent filmmakers are preparing their works for Sundance and other festivals. As soon as Jim has the time, we'll get back to work on the CD. I hope to have it ready in time for the Suwannee SpringFest. Here's the schedule as it stands today. There may be a couple more Southwest shows in February, and there will definitely be more southeast dates in March.

Hello, friends, and happy SPRING! At least it seems to have arrived early here in the bay area. And I am expecting mild temps as I get on a plane for Florida today. The big news is that my new CD is ready. It's called "Twisted Love Songs." All but four of the songs are original. I took the cover photos, too. The disc was mastered by Jeffrey Norman at Garage Audio Mastering, and it sounds terrific. I have sent it to CDBaby, and it should be available there by Monday or Tuesday. http://www.cdbaby.com/all/dgans I'll get a web page up with sample audio ASAP. Right now you can see the cover art here: http://www.dgans.com/CD_Cover.jpg Here's the info to order it directly from us: send $17.50 ($ 15.00 plus P&H) to: Perfectible Recordings PERF-06 484 Lake Park Ave. #102 Oakland CA 94610-2730 And now, here are the tour dates as we know them. Updates will be posted at http://www.dgans.com/gigs.html as new shows are confirmed. SOUTHEAST: * Saturday, March 17, 8:30 pm: The Venue, 1020 Broad Street Camden SC. Naked Eye Productions * Sunday, March 18, 9:00 pm: DG w/ David McCracken (keyboards) at The Blind Tiger, 2115 Walker Avenue Greensboro NC. $5. 336-272-9888 * Monday, March 19, 6:45 pm EST: DG appears on Michael Johnathon's Woodsongs Old-Time Radio Hour.
