Very, very cold tonight. Tomorrow’s gig is supposed to be in Long Island at the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center. Of course right now the Long Island Expressway and the ferries are closed, but we’re hoping that by tomorrow morning the storm will have passed and the show will go on. In the meantime, I have played the Iron Horse for over thirty years. Where do those decades go? I’m just tickled pink to be here… in the meantime, keep your fingers crossed for good weather tomorrow.
Onward!
Wonderful music!
Will you tour the West Coast or left coast of canada – vancouver) in 2014?
We was there-the wife doesn’t often go out on school nights, but she got a snow day & kinda cut loose. She’s very intolerant of them what must chat during the tunes, but managed to restrain herself …folks we shared a table with met at the same college our daughter went to in far upstate NY. BTW my other daughter feels that Chris Smither is the cutest old hippie she’s laid eyes on…Oh, right-great show old chaps! Esp. enjoyed Ballroom Crystal Ball
Happy belated Birthday and New Year. Put down 3 dogs in the last 9 months. My faith, family and friends gets me thru, but also my thoughts turn to music and you. Today Alfie Barked and the Door to Summer, and met hes friends. Now to listen to some of your music and pick myself back up. Good to you and your’s. Jack
Good looking show Jorma. Safe travels and will see you in Glenside Pa !
Would someone please enlighten me as to the origin of “In My Dreams”.
Where-when-hum me a few bars?
I have no clue
This know it all Tuna-Head needs help.
Safe travels to Hot Tuna & crew.
Since I can’t get there, I’m happy to give my ticket to a young local musician who is a Tuna fan. Enjoy the show, Ryan!

Hot Tuna melts any snow, quiiiiiiiietens the thundering and is amphibious too.
