April 12, 2012
The lecture season has already begun. Last night we were in Milford, NH where I haven’t been onstage since my rock band played the town hall in 1968. or was it 67? It was a packed house at the Wadleigh Library and tonight for my take on the War of 1812. Tonight it’s the Strawbery Banke story at Blaisdell Memorial Library in Nottingham. Before that it was a group of antiquarians called Questars at the Derry Library. I keep kidding about printing up a black t-shirt with the annual tours on the back – Plaistow, East Kingston, Atkinson. Oh ya, baby, I get around. And I can prove it too. More than a dozen venues have booked yours truly this year and the calls keep coming in so I’ve put together a list. (Continued below)
