Probably many of you know that I’m a writer, but did you also know that I’m a famous musician?
I try to keep it quiet here in Cincinnati but throughout the rest of the United States I’m known as a most excellent mandolin player.
Perhaps it’s time to start sharing my musical talent with you here in the Queen City. Below is a video clip of yours truly performing Live at the Apollo!
Well, I’m not totally lying. The video was shot live, but not at the Apollo Theater. It was actually shot in Apollo, Pennsylvania. My friend Jim has a mother who lives there and we did a bit of a jam session in her living room around Thanksgiving time.
Really, did you think I’d be playing “Comin’ Round the Mountain at the real Apollo?
