I just got invited, by the legendary Bill Lowman himself, to perform both nights at Medora's 20th Annual Cowboy Poetry Gathering. This is a great honor for me, and might catalyze me to write more cowboy poems this winter. The dates are May 27th and 28th. Minutes after I hung up the phone with Mr. Lowman, I got a call from a Mrs. Nelson in Dickinson who offered me $200 to play a community show there. In two weeks I have a gig in Killdeer with Beni Paulson's country band, Rough N Ready, and the next night I'll drive to Cross Ranch State Park for a WinterFest performance (see calendar for dates).

I've been wanting to play shows in western North Dakota. The only one I've done recently was for the Dunn County Farm Bureau's annual meeting last year.

Yeah, I'll be playing just before them.

Hey...that's great. Don't forget the other local talent as you rise high on the totem pole.
