<p>12-26-16</p>
<p>Trying to think of a better word for lazy. I mean a nicer word. I can't think of one. I guess I will use it. It goes something like this..... I''m lazy.</p>
<p>No 5 alarm surprise there however 2017 will perhaps indicate otherwise.</p>
<p>I have songs qued up for a new album and several places waiting for me to confirm a date with them.</p>

<p>Back in the saddle again.2016 has all the ingredients for perfect songwriting. FebruaryAlbumWrittingMonth or FAWM is the perfect online answer to make everyone try a little more seriously to finish something and put it out there. Good luck.</p>

<p>April 28th I'll be on KPTZ 91.9 FM doing an interview at 1PM. On May 3rd I'll do another KPTZ radio interview between 4 & 6 PM . At 7PM I'll be doing a show at The Boiler Room in Port Townsend WA, Should be lots of fun. I'm looking forward to it.</p>

<p>I wrote a song a few years ago and didn't think it was very good. Fast forward... right now people are actually requesting it. Some nice things are happening because of it and I look forward to sharing it soon. A rough demo at the very least. I think it is very good music for a movie by the same name The City. Even if I did originally call it Concrete Sidewalks.</p>

<p>I'm thinking of a new song about what almost everyone would like to have and haven't quite got the music down or even created to start broadcasting it but hopefully It will now manifest and come forth. Ha ha ha.</p>
<p>I "discovered" a new radio station about a month ago while finally getting around to putting in a sound system into my workshop, (like I'd really be able to hear it there), and now I'm going to be moving. Damn. the good thing is I may wind up in Port Townsend, WA where the station is located! KPTZ is the best station I've heard since Whole Wheat Radio went off the air in Talkeetna, Alaska. Better than some college stations because they aren't as interesting and the quality is next to CBC Radio1 & CBC Radio 2, if you can pick up those Canadian stations.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've played a couple times at the local Greenbank (WA) Store,sold CDs and been fed well by Brian Cedars, the owner. And of course Angelo's Cafe in Oak Harbor,(on Whidbey Island) gives me a good crowd when I'm not too lazy to get up there and play.</p>
<p>I hope everyone is well. Cheers!</p>

I have had so many requests and visits It's hard to keep up with the demand. Thank you to everyone who is downloading my music and or buying my CDs. Thank you. I wish I could thank you individually and try when my schedule permits. Ciao for now.

<p>Just got back from St. Augustine where I wrote a song that I feel really good about. A bonus is a local gang of fellow songwriters seemed to like it as well! More to come.</p>

<p>I'm glad to see Gordon Lightfoot is pulling YouTube veiwers to me by way of watching me do covers of his.</p>
<p>Both Did She Mention My Name & Albert Bound are being received well. Thanks Gord!</p>

<p>For What It's Worth Dept.</p>
<p>Almost had a disaster while using the computer to write a song. Nothing so mundane as hitting the wrong key and wiping out what I'd thought of. As I reached over and lifted a bottle of fountain pen ink over to the side, I hadn't screwed the lid tight and it spilled on my desktop and keyboard. I spent the next 2 days Q-tipping ink off the solid state circuitry and managed to save it. Whew. Lord knows why I don't stick to using my fountain pens.</p>

<p>Well friends, I've had a fun time off but I really need to work. I put a cover of Alberta Bound by Gordon Lightfoot up on YouTube ("Alberta Bound by Gordon Lightfoot performed by Steve Jordan") & it's getting listened to by a few Lightfootheads. I like it!!!</p>
<p>I was setback with a fingernail issue for a few months but now I'm committing to acrylic nails and the trade off is worth it. Meaning I can give performances again.</p>
<p>Speaking of which, I had a succesful gig recently and got a gig lined up for another April 30th (see calendar for details).</p>
<p>Peace and good cheer</p>
<p>to those who drink beer</p>
<p>or those who would not</p>
<p>because they drink Scotch sj</p>

<p>This is your chance to hear When I Get Home that's much better than the version I put up on YouTube. Ed Newkirk and I went into the studio with a laid back attitude and came out with something pretty nice. Remember it's free for right now and you can download it at CDBaby.com (my HQ) or several digital distribution outlets like i-Tunes, etc. when you feel like it.</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>I was in South Africa and Botswana in September gigging and have many ideas churning for songs. I wrote one about the wildlife in Botswana that is nearing completion. If it gets listened to as much as When I Get Home I don't know where I'll hide out next. sj</p>

It's called WHEN I GET HOME.
I know you'll enjoy it.</p>
