Episode 73: Remembering My Friend Shadowlight Part 2 Take 2

I'm not exactly sure how to say this as I'm kind of confused right now, but my great friend Jamie Shadowlight passed away this past Saturday after bravely battling cancer. She truly was one of my closest friends over the past 10 years. I really believed she was going to beat the cancer, which is probably why I'm confused, angry, guilty and sad all at once. I know she would be honored if I remembered her in my livestream/podcast, so that's what I did this Wednesday June 12 at 4pm PST. I will honored Shadowlight by sharing memories about her and showing some of the videos of us playing music together over the past 10 years.

We've got republicans and democrats fighting, wars overseas, men and women at odds, the economy on the brink of collapse, a US presidential election, and so many things that one could wonder if this truly is the end times. This was discussed on this episode of my podcast. Hint: I still believe God is in control!

In this episode I gave my annual birthday speech, which this year happens to be my 47th birthday. My speech may not have been as well prepared as previous years, but the show must go. I’ve had tons of stuff going on in my world to distract me from writing my annual speech, but the show must go on. Also, I talked a lot about St Patty's Day. Also, I fixed my mixer so I was back to playing songs live. 

SONGS : (all on banjo) 
1 Shady Grove  - traditional 
2 Good Lordy 40 - by Fast Heart Mart 
3 Let’s All Solve This - by Fast Heart Mart
4 Wagon Wheel - by Bob Dylan AND The Old Crow Medicine Show 
5 Stand By Me - By Ben E. King

The RV is Back up and running and my 47th birthday will be next Wednesday March 7th. I talked about these topics and showed some videos of me in my Volkswagen Van. Some people think I'm just now joining the "Van Life" party, but I've been "Van Life" since 2007.
