Back from Africa
Late last night I got back to Los Angeles after more than a month in Africa. I have so much to tell you about the experience that I don't even know where to start. I was teaching English at a secondary school in Tanzania, in the town of Moshi, at the foot of Mt. Kilimanjaro. In the mornings you could see the mountain from the road in front of my school! The kids were amazing, and it's fair to say that they taught me much more than I taught them.
Tomorrow I'm back on a plane to the East Coast for a gig this Friday night in Greenville, South Carolina. I'll be playing at Oysters On The West End, and we'll be celebrating the wedding of Katherine Schuler and Greg Ericson. Katherine and Greg met at one of my gigs at The Handlebar in Greenville a couple of years ago, and Katherine was kind enough to put up the whole band when we came through Charlotte, NC. She literally moved out of her apartment for a night so that we had a place to stay! The couple get married on Saturday, so come down Friday night and congratulate them early. Tim White, a great singer-songwriter from Greenville, will also perform, and I'm sure we'll play a few tunes together.
Next week, I expect to have a chance to write a little about my experience volunteering in Africa. I plan to post a blog on Myspace and add a few photos to the website.
Next month, my friend Seth Libbey is coming all the way from Mississippi to infiltrate Southern California with his soulful music. We're playing gigs in Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego. I'm telling you now, Seth is not to be missed! He is an incredible performer. You just don't know what might happen!
Hope you're doing well! Thanks for listening!
Take care,
Brax
