Dear friends of Celtic Music Night at St Andrew,
I’ve made it back to California through the snow and blizzards of the North, and am so excited to remind you about Tomorrow Nights Celtic Music Night Farewell Party!!!! It’s going to be a blast, and I really hope you can make it, as this the final stretch of days before the big adventure where I head East…. but I must say:
THANK YOU SO MUCH! All of your kind words and good thoughts have meant so much to me as I continue to prepare for the coming voyage across the country.
I regret that there is not more time to catch up with all of you individually before I go, but the time is fast approaching, and there is still so much going on in the mean time.
There is so much I want to say to everyone, but one thing especially to all is Thank you for your support! Y’all keep me going, and keep the music flourishing!
I hope you to see you all at some point over the next week, as Celtic Music Night concludes until sometime this summer when I shall return on tour…
I so appreciate all of the giftings you all have given me in our time together, and thanks for coming out last week for the final concert with Rebecca Lomnicky!

Webmaster for celticmusicnight.com here –
Just wanted to let everyone know that I have made a new page on the website titled “Thank You David.” Anyone can use this page to post a note of thanks for David that he can read while he’s getting his life reorganized on the east coast. After four years of wonderful music and comraderie, it’s kind of like signing his yearbook at graduation. We’ll miss you, David!

Your support for the coming great voyage across the nation in the form of attendance, donations, cd purchases, volunteering to help me, leads or contacts for gigs and people to visit or stay with are much appreciated!!!
