June road trip (copy)

[billhammond]

My drive to Hendersonville, NC, to see Elderdottir granulate is shaping up nicely. I plan to leave Faribault, Minn., around 6 ayem on Tuesday, June 3, and head to Peoria, passing through the Vinton/Urbana/Cedar Rapids vortex in time for brunch, if any Iowans are interested in that. Kook has given me several promising leads on hotels in Peoria that might be willing to trade a room for some live music. I am planning to pull the same scam in Frankfort, Ky., my destination for Day Two on the road.

Not sure yet about my route back. If the hotel thingies work out, and either or both are willing to do it again on my return trip, that would be the route. If not, perhaps I could aim at the Indiana/Illinois/Wisconsin path instead of the Iowa vector.

I detail all of this in case anyone enroute has any brilliant ideas about a mini-gathering. I need to be back at work on Wed., June 11.

Bill - I can get you and Barb a gig at the Landings on Saturday May 31st. I was there last night and inquired if the date was open and it is available. The owner asked how much you would charge so let me know if this will work for you.

I should be able to put you and Barb up at our house...we are in the process of a new addition and a guest bathroom should be ready by then.

We have a lot of graduation parties on that weekend but no worries you and Barbara are very much welcome.
