Had a great time at the 2011 Festival of Friends this past weekend! Many thanks to those of you who came out, braved the crowds and got sunburned. One of the highlights for me was to be able to play & share the stage with the legendary Jon Anderson. That's him in the middle as we are setting up. I quickly snapped this photo with my Blackberry, hoping he wasn't one of those guys that would object to picture taking. We were each in turn interviewed by the Spec's Tom Hogue and then performed songs individually. At the end of the hour Jon puts down his guitar, turns to me and says "You play something, and I'll sing" so we wrote on the spot a tune all about summer and the festival. Jon and is wife Jane are the most humble and friendly folks you could ever hope to meet.
