folks to play with

I notice I am very much looking for folks to play with, calling out to old friends and new, jamming with anyone, All Stars again--with Josh this time (interesting), networking to find musicians, etc. Needing to be out more and connect with folks, happy to receive an Imbolc party invite. Three gigs and the CD project with Young Edward. Definitely looking to create a new structure for livelihood, including a somewhat itinerant music-based lifestyle. Of service, benefit dance jams for local organizations as I/we travel who can put us up, paying gigs in there too, eclectic five-rhythm party band, spiritual focus is essential.

Actually, when I try to will the thing, I get overwhelmed with the details and apparent conflicts involved. The only way it's going to come around for inept old me is by way of Spirit. It's the only way anything ever has. Not to say I don't do my part. I like hard work, I just have difficult generating the structure for an autonomous lifestyle. But the coming season--with everyone I know into alt economics/barter, community rebuilding, gardens, attending to one another's needs, etc.--promises to be filled with grass roots efforts in permaculture, farmer's and art markets, and the various celebrations we all utilize to stay connected to one another amidst a greater Spirit. And that's what I want to be supporting and involved in.

Looking for fellow travelers, musicians, craftspeople, clowns and entertainers, dancers and acrobats, folk historians and spiritually-uplifting organizers. 5-Rhythm Earth, Love & Peace tour. If not now when? Anyone got a bus?

For now, I will pray and continue to ferment, gig with the ABQ boyz, celebrate the miraculous coming around of my wrist, strengthen my stamina with stuff like swimming to complement the job-work, meet and jam with new folks and try to collaborate on new and presentable bliss-generating gigs of service. Aiming toward summer for NM-based projects and fall for organizing a travel tour. Good to know others like the Yurtfolk friends out front in this and already living the dream!
