What is Horace Trahan up to nowadays?

Yesterday, I was watching a home-made dvd a friend of mine sent me with Horace Trahan on it showing how he plays the J'ai passé devant ta porte... I REALLY like his style.
What is he up to nowadays? I know he's been exploring different types of music (Zydeco, Reggea, etc.).
Is there any DVD of him besides the small film done by Wilson Savoy? What part of LA does he live in? I'd like to meet him on a future trip to LA

He's doing this workshop next weekend. I hope to make it myself.

Gosh, I wish I wasn't so far.
Do you know if anyone will be taping it? I'd love to get a copy?

If you do please ask him if he plans on doing any more traditional cajun music. I sure like his one cajun cd.

Here here! Man, Horace's Ossun Blues is one of the best Cajun CDs ever recorded. Conversely, "Butt Thing" is one of the hookiest zydeco tunes ever dreamt up. Homeboy needs to pick a direction and do it "one mo' again!"
