Hello, hello - I've been gone way too long from the blog! Had a wild and crazy finish to the summer (is it over yet?). Played at the MN State Fair with Tom Mischke, on the 'Prairie Home Companion Show' on the Grandstand stage. Super fun experience, playing guitar with some awesome musicians! Played two more dates with my duo-sidekick, Chris Herriges, at the Ramberg Senior Center. That too was a blast. So fun to see how music touches lives, from infancy to elderly (I'm currently somewhere in the midde of the spectrum). In other news, I have an additional site that will focus 100% on my original music: www.myspace.com/michaelloonan). I was leery of getting a MySpace page, but found one too many musicians who use the site in a good way. Stop by and check out the page when you get moment! See you back here soon - Mike
