Howard & I knew Bruce Phillips close to 30 years.  Since the early days of
the San Diego Folk Festival in the early 70's.  He pulled all kinds of
pranks at that festival, like throwing a plastic turd your way, when you
weren't looking.  He even showed up one day with mouse ears.  He was at
Disneyland that day.  He even bought mouse  ears for all the Boys of the
Lough, which they wore during their performance.  There is so much more. He
once told us we have every word he ever uttered.  We did follow him around a
lot with a tape recorder.
FolkScene will be paying tribute to Utah tomorrow evening, May 25.  We have
a wonderful concert from McCabes, that dates back to Feb 14, 1987.  It was
shortly after the passing of Kate Wolf.  He talks a lot about Kate.  The
program airs from 7-9:00 PM on KPFK Los Angeles at 90.7 FM and streaming
from www.kpfk.org  They program will be archived for 6 days, and available
to download to your ipod.
I will miss you good friend.  R.I.P.
