Friday is the 1st of December, the 1st day of the last month of the year. For me, 2006 has been an epic year of mind-numbing proportions. I have learned more about business, my self and people in this year than I think I have learned in the three before that.

It has been a tough year, with some hard lessons. I believe I possibly wasn't listening in the past, so the hammer came out this year. That said, it has also been a magnificent year and I feel priveliged to be here, doing what I do.

Some of what has happened has been unneccesary in a way, some people just really didn't listen, and others were just bad choices. I made some big mistakes and also took some delightful wrong turns. But over all, I can honestly say that it has been a good year in its sum total.

So, to celebrate the bounty of another year alive and breathing, here is a selection of live music for you all to enjoy... this week even covering the Eastern Cape!

This is becoming my traditional exhortation, but let not repetition dull the edge of it in your brains:

Go out and see live music. This is your culture, embrace it, live it, make a difference in your world. Don't let the radio or TV or media rule your mind, find your own truth, be your own person!

Good luck, and good night!
