Had a great gig with Leah on Saturday at Andy’s in Chestertown, MD. Our audience was fantastic and this is a wonderful venue for quality original music from around the region. I’m still a little exhausted since I started on a sleep deficit Saturday morning and never really caught up …
Woo-hoo! Tonight I set up a Subversion server. It is available for read-only access at svn://svn.frields.org. Eventually I will be migrating this to using Apache and mod_dav_svn, but that will come later. Too much recompiling and installing to do on my trusty RHL 9 server for this late at night. …
