weekend gigs 

2 gigs in Roma this weekend, with some friends coming up from Napoli to hear...my time in Italia is running short, but it certainly has been an experience! both beautiful and ugly, clean and dirty, sometimes difficult, but truly a growth experience.

a word from sri 

“We do not have to learn any particular language to communicate with others if we can play soulful music. Soulful music is next to meditation, and it carries the beauty and fragrance of silence, the message of the inner and higher worlds.” - Sri Chinmoy

back in roma 

some new photos are up on the photo page, taken by my friend Tim down in Napoli/Pozzuoli. Have been recording at home, some originals and some (select) covers...2 gigs this weekend in Roma, and some new work forthcoming...

crazy in pozzuoli 

last night was a fun and crazy night in pozzuoli. my gig was packed, and the people were (collectively) in a good mood. I intentionally did not bring my song book, so I could play what I could play from memory (besides it being one more heavy thing to take on the train) and I played FIVE hours with no breaks...(this is true, and Michael, you will either be proud of me, or think I am a moron) CD's sold out, and after, the club owner had dinner made for some of us, that was served about 3:15 am. Wine and…

April in Rome 

...or is that Rome in April? the weather is turning fantasic...I wish you were all here to enjoy some of it with me. Quite soon, I will be taking down the euro-blog, as I have joined a movement to put musicians back behind their instruments, and NOT behind a computer keyboard... I am looking for a talented 'webmaster' to take over the health and maintenance of adamliebmusic.com, so if anyone out there is interested, please let me know. For now, let me wish everyone a wonderful April and a wonderful Spring.

Buona Pasqua 

Happy Easter everyone! Getting ready for Easter- I have painted all my eggs, in the darkest possible of colours, I am hiding them away real good, so even I can't find them. I have not put them all in one basket. The basket is uncertain... Easter will be spent in Campania, in the home of my friends in Telese. Friends and the people of Italy have been taking good care of me- something I am learning I need. Hope all is well at home...Happy Birthday Uncle Noel.

St. Patricks Day 

A last minute booking for me to play in an Irish Pub on St Paddys Day...typical I guess- as long as they don't start serving green pasta and green gnocchi... I hope everyone is happy and healthy in the place they are, and in our home under the sky...

strange dreams 

I have been recording some little bits of Music here and there in Rome. Mostly loops done with my live looping unit. I have learned a way of using it as a home recording device. This will be useful in the pre-production of the next CD. After dreaming one night about Steve Earle, (what is wrong with me?) I woke up with this in my head...you can check it out at the LISTEN page, and it is only about 40 seconds long.

be sensible 

today is the real and true birthday of albert einstein. i hope you all celebrate...sensibly happy birthday rose too!

Fun at Flux 

Last Night was quite a fun night at the Flux...I played one 90 minute solo set and had Guido join me on melodica at the end for a few songs. Not sure of what a melodica is? Neither am I; Google it. We played a few Pino Danielle songs and a few of the people there from Napoli said my accent was good! Many friends came to hear me, so thank you, and so sorry to those who came later, after I finished and the DJ had started. (although the DJ was quite good) Prosima volta... rain in rome is continuing...keeps me…
