DOG NEWS:
Your scribe: Steve Blake

It's been at least a year since I updated this page.
For those of you who know me no details are necessary.
For those of you who don't, suffice to say I have undergone
some changes of lifestyle and domestic situation.
There have also been some new and interesting developments.
The Editing Suite for Toad Hall Studio has been moved.
The new space is a lot more comfortable and spacious.

I have been attempting to learn the upright bass (you will notice it
on some the more recent recordings.)

I have left The Atomic Trousers
(no drama, just a matter of time constraints.)

So that is it. I hope to be a little more fastidious
about posting and updating the pages.
The truth is that circumstances requiring my attention
really did derail this and other elements of my professional life.


One last thing, our dear friend Rick Blaze passed away recently.
I offer my condolences to his widow Deborah and to his family.
I know he had a rough time recently and I am sorry that I will never again
see a friend who was kind to me and genuine.




   
GIG NEWS:
 

Loose Salute

There will be a tribute to Rick Blaze
on Nov. 4th at Ralph's, in Worcester, details to come


Also, Loose Salute will in fact be opening for Peter Tork
and The Shoe Suede Blues at the Megafest

STUDIO NEWS: 


Lynsey Moon has been recording some material at Toad Hall.
We hope to announce some very interesting special guests on this recording.
Lynsey occasionally sings with Loose Salute and is
a formidable songwriter and performer in her own right.
