Spring News: The Tour Begins! Plus Valerie & John's Trip to a Mosque

Rehearsal time.

Here we are... in the present tense, rehearsing for an upcoming batch of shows to kick off our summer tour. Our last concert was in November on Guam. (We were traveling with The Jets and there was a typhoon going on.) Quite memorable.

Coming up in March and April are some Freestyle concerts in San Carlos AZ, Sacramento CA, Miami FL and Las Vegas NV. You can find out more about our schedule on our website HERE

Finally, in response to the tragic shooting in New Zealand last week, some folks up in Canada started a campaign called #VisitAMosque. We were made aware if it by our Toronto friend Keith Laidman. He and his wife Michelle have an interesting website called Discover Hit Music that's worth a visit.

Anyway, we looked up the closest mosque to our house and went over for Friday afternoon prayers. During the service, the overwhelming feeling was one of peace. In fact, the word Islam means peace. Afterward, several members of the mosque came over to talk with us and one of them was an old friend we've known for over 30 years. Everyone made us feel so welcome. A great experience — we recommend it!

OK... that's all for now.

See you somewhere down the road!
