Maz I am now located in Ellijay Ga.. This is up north of Atlanta in the mountains in the Coosawattee River Resort. Check the place out on the internet if you like. I am still in the accordions business. (repairs on all types) We are not far from Helen, Ga where there is an established group of piano accordion players who play German music in Helen. Helen is modeled after an Austrian type village. A big tourist attraction.
Where are you located Maz. We used to visit Canada (Eastern Part) quiet often and still have friends there near Montreal.
Stayed overnight in Halifax several years ago while attending the Acadian Congress in Nova Scotia. Seemed like a nice city and we regretted we were not able to stay longer. I am originally from Eunice, La. The heart of acadian country. tout a l'heure
Philippe Bruneau is considered here in Quebec to be one of the greatest and most creative accordion players ever. I have heard that is true that he moved to France, bitter about not being as successful as an artist as he deserved.Apparently he is a proud & difficult person and doesn't open up easily even to those in the traditional music community who do appreciate and celebrate his music.
La vie de musicien, c'est une vie bien dure.
Ever know any musicians like him?
Thanks for all the help folks.Read about this amazing guy in an article about Marc Savoy. Hello Mr. William. Good to see your post. Basement is finally dry. We are much more fortunate than some.
Hey Gregg glad to learn you're finally starting to dry out and you're safe.
I drove my Dad to the air port this morning to meet with other WWll vets. They're going to Washington DC (as opposed to Washington EC) for the dedication of WWll memorial. Then they will return tonight.
Wife just made some chicken and sausage Jambalaya and it's ready. Later
