Bad Bob

Well, a new character has joined the show. His name is 'Bad Bob' and I consider him to be one of the great 'biker's' in America. He is decked out in the usual leather garb, shaved head, ear ring etc and is a fellow to be reckoned with. Unfortunately, Bob is not as cool as he think's he is, and this is where the fun begins.

The development of a character is always a tenuous process at best. This, because the audience really defines how that character ultimately will come across. Meaning, in the initial outings, a lot of material is tried out in front of groups. Most of it, most of the time, doesn't play. Or, doesn't get laughs. And so, for every tens jokes, two may actually get a response. And that, is how an act is built. Night after night, trying new things until one gets a series of gags that work with an audience. For the performer, it is a bit terrifying to stand up there, telling jokes and not getting laughs. But, doing it, is the ONLY way to really find out. "Bob" is holding his own and has "made it' to being a regular, I'm glad to report. Soon, we will get a photo up on the site....D

Well, another concert coming up. Looking forward to playing at the Perpich Center for the Arts on April 20th, at 4 pm. This is a beautiful and intimate hall and should serve well for this guitar player. In addition, I will be releasing my first CD in 3 years at the concert. It is entitled: Reunion. 16 original compositions for solo guitar. I'm proud of this one and I think you will enjoy it too. So, look forward to meeting you folks that attend. Salute D.
