Hi Everybody!

Hi Everybody!

My web master Cyber-Space Jedi Obi Wan Gamache has suggested to me that I need to do more blogs and that there is nothing wrong with doing several short ones instead of one longer monthly(ish) one. I asked for feedback and I got it! So here goes!

Hi Everybody!

Well, here I am once again sitting at the ol' Acer laptop blogging Chapter 5 which means that I've managed to stave off Chapter 11, at least for the moment...

Hi Everybody!

So, it's the last day of 2008, a year that roared in like a Lion and goes out like the Zebra it had for dinner... 

Hi Everybody!

Sorry I've been gone for a bit but its been a hectic summer and early Fall for yours truly. I have just done some of the coolest gigs I have ever been fortunate enough to play in and will be writing about them over the next couple of weeks. They were the INAFA Festival in Eau Clare WI, the Queen Maeve School of trad Irish music and dance in Sligo Ireland, my debut in Carnegie Hall N.Y.C. and my 7th Annual Wind on the Bay Flute bash weekend in Rhode Island. 

Hi Everybody!

First off, thanks to all of you for reading the last blog and now for checking this one out too. I have been off line for a bit but hopefully am back full time now. My special thanks to web master Obi Wan Gamache for his tireless efforts of the past couple of months. In that time he has been doing battle with the Dark Side in the Cyber Wars on my behalf slaying sucky servers, battling busted blades and eradicating errant e mail errors. Well done Obi Wan, the Force is strong in you!

Hi Everybody!

 I have just returned to my winter headquarters in Orlando, Florida after a great weekend in the beautiful town of Lafayette, Indiana on the shores of the historic Wabash river. I was an instructor and performer at a really cool (well, really COLD) fife and drum event aptly called the "Freezer Jam". The event featured a dozen fife and drum corps from various states throughout the central U.S. First a few words about American fife and drum music in general and then this particular event.

Hi Everybody and welcome to the new Skip Healy.com web site!

There are a lot of changes to my web site that I am very excited about. I hope you'll take a few minutes and click through the various pages to check out the new and improved content.

One of the major changes has been to roll my Wind on the Bay web site into my main site in hopes that by combining the two, you will find it easier and quicker to get the information you want.
