I have been playing for Peter Hohnerkamp at his Stephen Talkhouse for a quarter of a century. It’s always been a blast and we have all come a long way together. In addition to his keeping a fine live music venue running for so long out in Amaganset, he has been instrumental in working with and for the Wounded Warrior Foundation.. If you click this link, you can make a one time donation to help some worthy soul who has put their life on the line so that we may enjoy ours here at home. These men and woman deserve our support. Do it folks… do it!
Nuff said…

Good times here, but better on down the road!
Jorma,
You’re a treasure. Blessed be your way.
Sorry to hear about Joey. Hope we can finally hear “Bludgeon Of A Bluecoat” and “Whatever The Old Man Does (Is Always Right)” sometime. Good luck to you and can’t to hear you and Jack tear it up at Ocean City.
Jorma, sorry to hear about Joey Covington – one the earliest drummers for Hot Tuna. I never saw him play, but I know he was a bud of you and Jack. May he rest in peace.
Jorma, I was at the show last night in the Carolina theatre sitting in the opera box. The acoustics in there were made for you! I called out for Good Shepherd and Lord did u guys deliver. U r simply the best please keep on rocking and come to NC often as I have gone to see you since 1979!
a great article. Thank you
Sorry to hear about Joey Covington

You, Marty and Paul are mentioned.
My deepest condolences about Joey’s demise.
hope to catch up with you guys at the Clearwater festival, and perhaps the old Keswick theater, and maybe even Bethel Woods too! wow Hot Tuna at Woodstock
I am sad to hear about the death of Joey Covington. Just a coincidence, but the other day as I was putting my daughter’s drumsticks away, I thought about him. May he R.I.P.
Very sorry to hear this he was too young. R.I.P. joey
Dear Jorma,
Heard the sad news about Joey. Deeply saddened.
Safe travels,
Cyndy
Jorma,
I am also sorry to hear about Joey Covington.

sorry to hear about Joey Covington….
My band just did a benefit for the Wounded Warrior Foundation over Memorial Day. They’re also involved in a program that puts guitars in vets hands. Yep – a worthy cause.
Ok, John B- will let you know if I am going to State Theater!
Stay Well
Cyndy@John B
Going to both of those as well as Patchogue. @Cyndy Consentino
Saw you all at the Talkhouse – I love that venue, got to see your amazin’ guitar playing up close. (love the Beacon, but can’t see the pickin’!!) As always, your music and Barry and GE were wonderful. That one table was a little rowdy, eh?! Can’t wait to see you -ELECTRIC HOT F……G TUNA on the Great South Bay in July. My biggest dilemma…which do I like more…acoustic or electric?!! Life is good, eh? Happy Trucking Jorma and Barry, I bet my friends in NC can’t wait to see you. Thanks for a great night.
I don’t have a ticket, John. Are you going? I will probably go to State Theater in New Brunswick on 07/20/13.
Are you going to that show?@John B
Sorry, I would be mistaken if I did not mention the Wounded Warrior Project. Thanks for it’s support. Being former US Marine I have seen some of the impact these men and their families have endured. Thanks again.

Jorma,
Had a great time at the Talkhouse last night. I brought my wife and my 21 year old son. Family night out. Second time we saw you, Barry and GE play the Talkhouse. Thanks again for a great time. Peace to you
Kevin Knox
Are you going to Keswick Cyndy? @Cyndy Consentino
Dear Jorma,
Wounded Warrior Project is a very worthy cause!
Thanks for mentioning it and bringing attention to it!
Safe Travels
Cyndy
Wow, GE Smith in so many songs with You and Barry, must have been something super and very special indeed, and actually I know so very little that I can’t even imagine how did it sound like Good Shepherd, Barbeque King, San Francisco Baby Blues, I wonder how that formidable guitar quilted those great songs.
Peace be the journey Jorma!
