Great advice from Derek Silvers

This is a video about the things he felt important to tell students at his old school. If you're a musician - there's great advice at any stage of your career.

Playing the west coast

Played at a wonderful coffee shop in Vancouver, last Friday - Waves Coffee. Great people and they seemed to like my music. Even sold some of my CD's. Ran into another play in Hope on the way back to Calgary, Skinny's Grill. They have Saturday night entertainment and will have to arrange something next time I'm out that way.
