And might I add I couldn&#8217;t be happier. (Not a big year for rain so far, and we really need it.) With that in mind, here&#8217;s a replay of a couple of recent things from my end: An interview from Nevada City, CA with <a href=\"http:\/\/kvmr.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">KVMR&#8217;s<\/a> Wesley Robertson on his Saturday show &#8220;Rockin&#8217; and Stompin&#8217; &#8220;, which includes live performances of my songs <a href=\"http:\/\/michaelgaither.com\/music\/dogspeed_lyrics.html#Anchor-After-23240\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;After a Good Rain&#8221;<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/michaelgaither.com\/music\/dogspeed_lyrics.html#Anchor-Roselle-35882\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Roselle&#8221;<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/michaelgaither.com\/music\/dogspeed_lyrics.html#Anchor-Gettin-47857\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Gettin&#8217; to My Glory Days&#8221;<\/a> off my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cdbaby.com\/cd\/gaither2\" target=\"_blank\">Dogspeed<\/a> record, along with the new Facebook song &#8220;Unsuperpokeable&#8221;. Wesley&#8217;s a fellow music geek, a great supporter of my music, and also a fan of &#8220;Songs and Stories, so we&#8217;ll talk a bit about how this little podcast got started and what&#8217;s in the queue for upcoming episodes.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kvmr.org\/personalities\/w_robertson.html\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/michaelgaither.com\/b2\/blogs\/media\/w_robertson.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<strong>KVMR&#8217;s Wesley Robertson<\/strong><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I was up in Wesley&#8217;s area to promote a show I was doing later that night at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/evangelinescafe\" target=\"_blank\">Evangeline&#8217;s Cafe<\/a> in Colfax, CA.
