Dear friends, As Kate and Victor have already posted, Dave Carter a wonderful musician and songwriter died Friday. I was fortunate enough to have presented Dave and his partner Tracy Grammer four times at the Living Trad series, indeed they opened the series when it started up again four years ago. Dave and Tracy toured with Joan Baez and Richard Shindell earlier this year. They were on the verge of much wider recognition.
Reading the tributes at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Dave-and-Tracy/ I realize how much Dave touched others as he did Michele and I. And he sang of his passing, in the first song on their first CD: "And should you glimpse my wandering form out on the borderline Between death and resurrection and the council of the pines Do not worry for my comfort, do not sorrow for me so All your diamond tears will rise up and adorn the sky beside me When I go." It's been a tough weekend. -- ######################################################## Steve Dulson Costa Mesa CA [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Tinker's Own" http://www.tinkersown.com "The Living Tradition Concert Series" http://www.thelivingtradition.org/
