Welcome to 2012.  According to the prophecies, this year will be the end of the Mayan Empire.  All things must end.

Anthony Matt and I have recently restored some home movies by John Keel.  For updates on this project, check the tribute site that I maintain at www.johnkeel.com.

I will be doing a show on my birthday, Saturday, January 7.  I’ll sing my songs, aided by David Gold on the viola.  We’ll also do a couple of pieces for viola and piano.  It’s at Jalopy Theater, 315 Columbia St., Red Hook, Brooklyn; directions are on the Jalopy site.  Opening for us will be the Whiskey Spitters.  They’re at 9:00; we’re at 10:30; it’s $10.  Many of you have already received an e-mailing; but here it is again.
