Foundation, CD's, a gig or two...

A big thanks to Foundation for getting me to play last week, I had a great time. Tonight is their residents session at the Yardbird and free in as always so pop down if you get the chance. Also thanks to everyone who came out to the Jibbering Session last week, Munchbreak, The Dhol Blasters and JStar all rocked it with a nice vibe all night. Roy Ayers was cool on Sunday at the Hare and Hounds
