OK, somebody had better stop me or I’ll end up with an entirely new career path. :-)

Just joking, I still love speaking and helping people grow, and I’m finding more and more opportunities to play music as well. A few days ago I was in San Diego for a series of speeches and I added a one-hour “concert” where I played and sang classic Rock n Roll with the 500 attendees. And I just confirmed a repeat “gig” for Tuesday, May 4th, at Bogie’s Night Club at the Westlake Village Inn. I’ll be playing from 5:00pm to 7pm (just like I did 40 years ago when Paula and I were still dating!)
Here is the video evidence of last Tuesday’s show, April 27th where Paula joined me to sing and Dave Heroux joined me on guitar.

On April 8th I hosted the Sherwood Unplugged open-mike concert at my country club. We had ten people who got up and sang or played while 61 attendees joyfully listened and sang along. I’ll post an assortment of photos below so you can share the experience.

Guitar Center – Hollywood, under the leadership of general manager, Jason Vanderpal, loaned us 18 guitars for the night worth a total of over $100,000! Some were for us to play while others were just for the “Guitar Petting Zoo” where people could examine them in anticipation of buying one.

The music and the spontaneous harmonies made for a very fun evening. Thanks to all who attended. If you ever have an event where I can add some fun energy through music, please let me know. I’m now offering it as an add-on for any of my speaking engagements. This past two years I’ve had the opportunity to perform for and with folks in: New York City (Marriott Times Square), Phoenix (twice), San Diego (twice), Thousand Oaks, Macau China, Dallas, and Little Rock.
