Hi Folks,

I'm back from a wonderful weekend at Falcon Ridge and am posting this list of Greg songs played, and will add more later. Greg was in fine spirits this weekend and had a spiffy new pair of over-alls on all weekend. He wore a blue-jean fishing hat on Friday and Saturday, and had his "Iowa" ball cap on Sunday. He had his silly red glasses on at all of the workshop stages, but _not_ on the main stage on Saturday night. On with the songs;

Rad played with Greg on all songs, and played accordian on several. Karen Savoca, and Pete Heitzman joined Rad and Greg for the entire show on the main stage on Saturday night. The best crowd pleasing moment that I remember was on Saturday night when Greg sang Happy Birthday to Karen S., and included the line;

"...well, some half-asses poet once said that the music makes a good bridge, and I say, Karen you picked a pretty nice place to have your 23rd birthday, right here at Falcon Ridge"

Greg.
