BILL BLOG Tuesday, October 27, 2026   Good morning from Nashville. I’m home from a 10-day beach run. Got home Sunday actually, and had no computer to put up a Blog yesterday. Sigh. It’s in the shop…crashed.   Today’s high in Nashville will be 76 degrees, and it’s really starting to feel like Fall around here.   So, let’s catch up a little.   THE WEEKEND Friday was my last day in Gulf Shores at this year’s MOTM event for Parrot Heads.

BILL BLOG Friday, October 23, 2026 One last good morning to you from beautiful Gulf Shores, home of MOTM, the Parrot Head Festival. The high today here will be 79 with lots of sunshine. YESTERDAY Geez, take a look at the view I had from my stage yesterday morning for my 10:45 AM gig. Might be one of my favorite stage views ever! I played a one hour show for 30 or 40 Parrot Heads who gathered around the pool for the view, and the music I played.

BILL BLOG Thursday, October 22, 2026 Good morning. A busy day ahead here in beautiful Gulf Shores, Alabama. The high today will be 78. YESTERDAY This entire Gulf Coast trip I've been on has been filled with perfect weather, and yesterday was no exception. I managed to soak in the view, and the sun before I played a crazy-fun 3-hour show at Lulu's with my long time crazy friend Brent Burns last evening. We had a great crowd of locals, and Parrot Heads who are here for the big festival. It's always fun getting to play at Jimmy Buffett's sister's place, Lulu's.  NEW SHOWS I'm always adding new shows to my calendar. Yesterday I added 4 more with Linda Davis and Lang Scott for our " Evening in the Round " show. April 11 in Marietta, Georgia. April 15 & 16...two shows at the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre in North Carolina.  And then October 22 of 2027 we will play at the beautiful Reserve Golf Club in Pawley Island, South Carolina.
