Ron is the embodiment of kindness and patience. He is a "good man" in the truest sense of the phrase. He is smart, funny, talented, and unswervingly gracious in all of his actions. He has an incredibly generous heart and the uncanny ability to make those around him feel deeply appreciated just for being themselves.
On top of all of this he is also an extremely gifted musician with a passion for all things musical and the ability to impart that through his playing and singing.
A joy to listen to, a delight to be around, a gift to have in one's life -- I count myself as one of the lucky to be able to call him friend.

Saying good-bye to 2008 is bittersweet.... I'm SO glad we don't have the Repugnicans in charge in a few weeks, but I wonder if our new "wise leaders" will do better with a more centrist approach? The economic outlook is immediately bleak, but has ...

Yes, that's what I'm doing this week! Sang two shows at Dickens Fair with Pirates of Penzance Saturday and Sunday, plus Brass Farthing shows both days, plus singing four nights this week with the UC Monks, and then, with this Saturday and Sunday's...

Yes, I know, I'm quoting Lincoln, and he was a Republican, but that hardly matters, because, he was also a true President of the UNITED STATES, not the "blue" states, or the "red" states, not even the "grey" states after the Civil War. He was a pa...

I am once again starting rehearsals singing with the UC Monks on the Berkeley campus, tomorrow night Brass Farthing rehearses, and Friday night we kick off the California Steampunk Convention (thanks for the honor, Ari!), and next weekend workshop...

In a month Casa de Fruta opens, and I'll be singing there the first two weekends with Brass Farthing, who I've just been recruited into this past week. I am SO looking forward to performing with these stalwart lads, this is going to be a hoot! Car...

Saying good-bye to 2008 is bittersweet.... I'm SO glad we don't have the Repugnicans in charge in a few weeks, but I wonder if our new "wise leaders" will do better with a more centrist approach? The economic outlook is immediately bleak, but has the earmarks of a bright and abundant future if we can retool and renew and rebuild into a greener, more generally prosperous future for everybody. I want to see this future come to fruition, and I think it can happen in the near term, if we can all ...

Yes, that's what I'm doing this week! Sang two shows at Dickens Fair with Pirates of Penzance Saturday and Sunday, plus Brass Farthing shows both days, plus singing four nights this week with the UC Monks, and then, with this Saturday and Sunday's DF shows, it will have been eight days of singing out of nine consecutive. Now I think I know how Ozzie feels on tour! I'll be ready for a bit of a vocal rest this next week, yes I will!

He was a patriot who gave his last full measure so that all of us would continue to have a United States to live in and fight for, to continue fanning the flame of freedom in the world, and for that alone we owe him our continued participation in this great exp...
