"So, Danny; how are you anyway? I'm doing the Beatle Fest in New Jersey before we do Sellersville; it's just me," laughed the always pleasant, always jovial and always upfront original Yardbird Jim McCarty. "What's happening now is, we're doing a different sort of show. Somebody had suggested to me a few years ago; why don't you do The Yardbirds history? So, we're doing a different show where I talk through the history of the group and we play the songs as they come up and we have a back projection illustrating what I'm talking about.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites... 07/16/2026

Loss, we've all suffered it. Some of us more than others,some less and still yet there are those of us who've not had loss of any significance to this point. Loss, like anything else, is directly related to perspective. What may seem like a huge loss to one, is insignificant to another. People pass away, bad days do the same, they fade into the night or disappear at the bottom of one's favorite drink until they are swept away by the morning's sunrise and things are new. Some loss stays a bit longer, adding scars to our bodies until they become topographical maps of memories; reminders of what not to do or what we didn't do or should've done.
