Europe


The Blubinos were invited to play at the Handzame Blues Festival in Belgium in 1991. It was there that I made the connections that would lead to a record deal and my eventual relocation to Amsterdam. For the next several years I lived and toured in Europe and had some of the best times of my life. I played a lot cool shows in a whole bunch of countries. I drove a lot of miles and I rode on a lot of trains. After a couple of years I could butcher a few languages and get around in most major cities on my own. It was good to be European, if only for awhile. I've been back living in Portland since 2000 but I still get over to Europe once or twice a year for a few shows.
