    Recent band photo...

    This is a recent (11/7/09) photo of my band, The Mad Maggies. It's stage lighting, obviously, but I'm wearing my USAK Tara/Murphy semi trad, Thorfinn sporran, etc...

    Sebastopol, CA.

    It was a "house" gig at an open stage recording studio. Really GREAT sound!

    It's been 20 years since I visited there. The nice thing about the "Bay Area" is there are so many interesting towns and place to visit. All were just within a few hours drive (or an hour if I flew) from my house in Blossom Valley (San Jose.)

    I've lost count of how many great bands I've seen in some little out-of-the way pub or bar. I'm sorry to say, I didn't have the pleasure of catching yours though. Maybe the next time I'm down.

    That Accordion Babes Calendar will make a great Christmas present for a certain friend who appreciates fine art like that.

    You've been doing your homework! Good on you Sir!

    I've had the pleasure of sharing the stage with most of the Babes at one time or another over the past couple of years (some are old friends--and one is my wife!), and what a fine, beautiful and talented bunch of women they are!

    BTW, the calendars are available from us (The Mad Maggies), or if you want a batch at a discounted rate go here: 2010 West Coast Accordion Babes Calendar.

    This is awesome! my GF plays the accordian (as well as fiddle and banjo - but not all at once!) in her band. This might be finding its way into her stocking this year.

    I certainly hope it finds it's way into my stocking this year!
