Just wanted to say thanks to all those involved in putting on Logan's BBQ. There is a videotaped versions of "lean on me/fix you" which is my attempt at playing Lean on Me- by Bill Withers- one of Logan's favourite songs. I tried to learn the song "lean on me" in its original form and realized that musically and thematically it was very similar to 'fix you' by Coldplay so it was a natural cocktail. There is also a two part video of "15 minutes" a song that I wrote for Logan and her family. The whole event was videotaped and it may be possible to have that footage posted either here or on the facebook site. The show in Hope has been postponed until possibly August. Hopefully Dustin is going to be able to record the Hope show. I am due to start my residency in internal medicine on July 1st in Vancouver. Im not sure how prohibitive this will be on my musical free time. Hopefully not too much. Also- I want to mention that my favourite dog in the world "Finley / the Fin" died on June 2nd 2008 due to natural causes. It was nice that I was able to play his song and dedicate it to him "Finley's Christmas" twice recently (at the spring gala and at Logan's BBQ). He was a dog that experienced life with unbridled happiness. He loved people. I'm sure he's having a nice time in heaven, especially if they're having any sort of banquet or dinner party up there at the moment- although they will have to watch him up there with not eating off of well-meaning elderly peoples plates like Francis Whittle.
Cheers
JR
