First Friday Art Walk

On most Friday evenings, it's not difficult to find me

...at Dudley's Bookshop Cafe in heart of downtown, Bend. This evening was quite a treat...music to the ear. One of my favorite local musician (ex-San Francisco Bay Area resident) Mark Barringer performed a piece he discovered recently on YouTube below

The beginning is now and will always be
You say you lost your chance, then fate brought you defeat
but that means nothing, you look so sad
You've been listening to those who say you missed your chance
There's another train, there always is
Maybe the next one is yours
Get up and climb aboard another train
You feel you're done there's no such thing
although you're standing on your own your own breath is king
The beginning is now don't turn around
Regrets of bad mistakes will only drain you
There's another train, there always is
Maybe the next one is yours
Get up and climb aboard another train
We crawl in the dark sometimes and think too much
Then we fill our heads with crazy things that only break our hearts
and I know you've seen what the earth can do
When it's dragging down another load of worrisome fools
There's another train, there always is
Maybe the next one is yours
Get up and climb aboard another train
I know it's hard when you feel confused
You can crown yourself with fear now you feel you cannot move
You're building worlds that don't exist
Imagination plays the worst tricks
There's another train, there always is
Maybe the next one is yours
Get up and climb aboard another train
There always is
Maybe the next one is yours
Get up and climb aboard another train

What a powerful sound and lyrics! This is Pete Morton's classic song/anthem with the audience in good form.

If you're local or ever in town visiting, be sure to stop by my favorite store Dudley's Bookshop Cafe! Terri and Neal, the gentle-souls/owners, believe in their cause...recycle books...support local musicians...big supporter of higher education for youths and The Nature of Words...and build a strong community. Many of us would love to see Dudley's here to stay. Ooooh, they serve mean coffee drinks, teas, and real-fruit smoothies too.

DREAM...EXPLORE...AND DISCOVER! (stop by here to see what I've been creating)!
