Flying to Prague on Sunday to begin a month-long tour of Czechia and Northern Italy... schedule attached, and please spread the word to anyone you might know over there:

While I try to recover my FB account, a friend has created an "Elijah Wald Music" page that allows me some limited contact and will potentially help if it gets a bunch of followers... so if you'd care to "follow" and spread the word, that would be helpful. It's at www.facebook.com/ElijahWaldMu...

I'm doing a tour of the Czech Republic for Blues Alive! in November -- a bunch of concerts and three Jelly Roll Morton talks. If you are there or have any connections there, please spread the word!

A reminder that, along with the massive crime against humanity, the razing of Gaza City is also a crime against history, art, architecture...

This week's Songobiography post is an autobiographical classic from Merle Haggard:

It's crazy that so many folks are jumping on board with a "peace plan" that consists of threatening Hamas if the hostages aren't released, with no firm constraints on Israel from resuming attacks if they ARE released, and no future but a colony run by Trump with Palestinians working service jobs.

I just posted another clip from my "Bob Dylan in Greenwich Village" show, paying tribute to Paul Clayton and playing the song that was Dylan's model for "Don't Think Twice."

Where we are now...

I've been removed from Facebook -- apparently as part of the scam that stole my previous identity there, not because of my political posts...

For the moment, they're not letting me create a new identity, which is a pain because I use it to bring folks to my gigs, among other reasons.

Heads up, New York folks! I'm at the Jalopy Theatre in Brooklyn on Thurs, March 13 -- playing folk, blues, ragtime, swing, cowboy songs, Congolese and Bahamian guitar stuff, and whatever else comes to mind (with, yes, some Dylan-related stuff). Please spread the word.

Heads-up for Philly folks: I'm doing a concert in Mount Airy on Saturday -- It'll be my usual mix of ballads, blues, ragtime, jazz, Bahamian, Congolese, Mexican, cowboy songs, reconfigured banjo tunes... you know: folk music.
There are still a few openings...
