Friend and musical co-conspirator, Johannes Somary, passed away recently. Johannes (or Hannes as we wrote it) was a force of nature, inspiring people left, right, center, front and back-row with his zest for life. I’m going to go ahead and speak for everyone this time when I say we all love you, Hannes, and we’re going to miss you.

Spring was Hannes’ favorite time of year. (He was an avid gardener.) So, on this sun-filled Saturday, as the last of the snow on my back deck melts away, I wait in suspense as the corners of my smile make a bid to reach my ear lobes.

[Update: Fast-forward forty-eight hours to MORE snow!? Man, this storm is messing with the flow of my Spring-themed remembrance! Oh well. We'll get to Spring sooner or later.]

Cheers Hannes (and everybody),

David

Stay tuned for tunes! Just a wee bit more tracking and mixing and it’ll be time to let go finally.

Sending you cheers and the wish that your Summer is going swimmingly.

Cheers,

David

Hello world! And, by “world,” I pretty much mean myself, since no one is reading or even knows about this blog yet. But, hey, why let GLARING realities (like perfect solitude) stop a person from excitedly blathering on at his keyboard, right? Right!

I’m so excited to begin Staring at the Walls with you:-) I look forward to seein’ you ’round these parts.

Cheers,

David
