This was long before her Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York events. She's never disappointed her fan base. She is a great musician and always gives her audiences something to remember. Many of us in Maryland are eagerly waiting for the release of Stephie and the Pedestrians CD. I remember Stephie Coplan playing the piano for years when she grew up in Maryland.

]]> Comment on Pastor Michael takes on Obama by Victim of New England Baptist Church http://www.davesphotoblog.com/2008/10/26/pastor-michael-takes-on-obama/comment-page-1/#comment-2295 Victim of New England Baptist Church Sun, 26 Jun 2011 00:10:44 +0000 http://www.davesphotoblog.com/?p=416#comment-2295 On December 10, 2002 I was gay bashed by Deacon Brian Codi of the New England Baptist Church at TV 3 Medford, the public access station. For merely mentioning the name of the guy I was dating Deacon Codi went ballistic ...and was already on station "probation" for being disruptive. But the "born again Christian" (in name only) manager of the Tv station used the three letter word denigrating homosexuals (begins with F) and threw me out. Do you know what the TV station did? They brought Jay Ricci from the New England Baptist Church into the fold as a member of their Board of Directors. He is said to have recently left but his tv show continues to air. Do you know what this gay man did for NEBC? I showed them kindness and ran a camera for Pastor Michael's show. The thanks I got was to be thrown out of the TV station, harassed non-stop and even the Human Rights Commissioner, Diane McLeod, who has a letter in an online publication about the NEBC dated June 15, even Diane McLeod is powerless to do anything about the hate. This is more than just a sign in the square; the church infiltrated the public access station, a station that squelches Free Speech in Medford.

Of course, I never knew the real name of the tower until today. I had an imaginary friend who lived up there, Mister Jiggadee, and that was his house. I would love a photo of Wright's Tower (a.k.a. Mister Jiggadee's house) for my desktop wallpaper. Do you have any large photos you could send me? Thanks!

The dealer I bought it from has since stopped selling the brand due to the issues with "dehydration" other customers have reported. I have heard from a few other owners I know in Michigan about weird issues with their guitars. Mine no longer sounds anything like it did when I bought it. It sounds dead and lifeless like there is odd tension on the soundboard. I have this same rumor about Larrivee not curing wood properly as well. Makes me mad as hell. I prefer my $250 Art & Luthier to my $1300 Larrivee now. I too have a cracked Larrivee (D-03 RE) in a similar place.

Very nicely narrated. My favorite picture of all if the one of the Welcome Station. I think the American Flag makes such a wonderful contrast with everything. And the cute little welcome station.

I think Cilla Bonnie is the best, but then again, I may be a little biased (she's my daughter). So glad I was able to be there that night, it was the culmination of a lot of hard work and it was great to see it all come together. What kind words, Dave, thank you!

This was a show I was so desperately sad to have missed, but it was the same night as my sister's bridal shower, and there was no way I could do it. Can't wait to hit a show and grab a copy of the disc once the wedding is over. Awesome review and pics!
