Or maybe it was just more concentrated since the webconcerts tend to be a bit shorter than some of my usuals SPD shenanigans. That meant lots of representation from the Pogues. I also had a bit of nostalgia thrown in and took a short diversion from the theme to cover a tune also done by my dear musical colleague, Ariana. I always liked hearing her and her band do "I Can See Clearly Now". It's been long overdue that I finished putting together an actual arrangement for it, hence calling it a debut despite me clumsily trying it out a small handful of times in Old Town. Thanks to everyone who tuned in. The next one will be April 2nd. I hope to highlight songs featuring Fools, Foolishness, Blarney, And that brings me to a new plug I'd like to insert into the conversation: https://www.stevehaug.com is once again updated. My upcoming webconcerts and live performances(!!) are all in there under the Schedule Tab. There's also a feature in it I'd like to highlight: My Setlists! Yes, I am, in fact unashamedly trying to drive more clicks to the site. So, do go check them out! And here's a fun thing to do as you look thru them: - Find your favourites and request one of them. OR - Find a song you didn't know I did, and that you'd like to hear and request it. At the moment, the setlists go back to around 2020 or so, but I have them going *way* back. There are sets from New Deal Cafe, Constellation Books, Esoterica, Clipper City, Cock & Bowl, Old Bowie Town Grill, Madams Organ and more. I'm still going thru them and getting them ready to post. So come back and find some great memories. Some of you will even find sets you were there at. Oh, and, one more thing: I'm always trying to get folks to help me find new friends who dig what I do. But I know, it's hard to just describe the range of what I perform. You can steer your friends to the site and encourage them to paw through the setlists and see how many of *their* favourites they can find!
