Utah Phillips' Caboose on the road again!
https://www.generosity.com/education-fundraising/utah-phillips-flanger-railroad-car-restoration
U Utah Phillips, "The Golden Voice of the Great Southwest," was indeed the greatest labor singer in North America in the past 60 years. He's the only person alive that I would have allowed to say the same about me. May 25th marks the ninth year since Utah Phillips "caught the westbound."
My friend Ron Kaminkow is another authentic working class hero. For many years he has been doing the work and following in the footsteps of yet another working class hero: Eugene V Debs. Ron became a locomotive engineer many years ago and he's been a daring activist for as long as I've known him... which is many many many years ago. Ron's been working for one big railroad union - a vision to which Debs devoted his life. I've been one of the ministers of culture to RWU -- Railroad Workers United -- along with the fabulous singin', pickin' and writin' Kentuckian locomotive engineer, JP Wright. In addition to his union-building job and his locomotive engineering job, Ron has transported several cabooses and hauled them up Mt Shasta from the Oregon side. He then repairs, restores and remodels them into small motel rooms intended for railroaders and hobos as a retreat. Utah's caboose is currently on the site of Philo Records in Vermont. Transporting and restoring this railroad car is a monumental, and expensive challenge. I hve no doubt the Ron and Utah's son, the wonderful Duncan Phillips can do this with our help. Theyhave launched this campaign. Please support it!
Utah Phillips deserves this - a library in his caboose, transported from Vermont and lovingly restored. renovated and reborn as the U Utah Phillips Library in time for the tenth anniveersary of his death.!

Double Trouble Tour...
My awsome friend, journalist Julie Hauserman arranged a house concert for me in Tallahassee. It was at the lovely home of Madelon and Jerry. It was international women's day! When I got to Julie's house the night before the show, she was flattened with the flu. We didn't get much time to hang out and she was too sick to come to the concert. Plenty of others joined us for a wonderful evening, and Julie is well again.

Eric flew into JAX the next morning and I was there to meet him at the airport. In lieu of rehearsal, we opted for afternoon naps in preparation for what turned out to be a great show at the Mudville Listening Room with our old pal, Grant Peeples. |
