Hi, I hope it's going well with you. I've got a sweet lineup of music, ocean, and volleyball moving along plus I squeeked out a new tune yesterday. This makes me happy. We'll play it on some of the upcoming gigs. It's name is "Mudra" and my plan is to record it next week.

For this week I only have one gig. It's on Sunday and I'm teaming up with the Tokeli revolution at Dizzy's. We had a good time spinning it out at the Spreckles Park last month and now we're bringing the music indoors and adding a few other tunes into the mix. She and the band are a creative gang and I'm looking forward to connecting with them. I hope to see you there.

That's what it is for now.

best, Peter
