### Hammered Dulcimer

## Covered by a rock band

My former trio partner, Craig Higgins, is now in a rock band called Snake Oil Salesmen. His colleagues decided to cover my tune Irksome Girl, which our trio used to play and included in our CD. To watch and listen, go to the Snake Oil Salesmen music page — it’s the second video.

## New event plugin

I just found and installed a new event calendar plugin that will help me organize and display upcoming events. It’s Event Calendar 3, and I like it even better than the one I previously used.

It took me a while to figure out how to install it. I knew to unzip the compressed folder after I downloaded it, but silly me, I didn’t realize, until a visit to the support forums, that then I needed to open the unzipped folder and upload the folder inside — I had tried uploading just the unzipped folder itself.

Tada!

And I even have an event (one lonely event — may more come soon!) to post!

## Holiday open house

The Culver Coffee Company is celebrating its fifth anniversary with a holiday open house from 2 to 4 pm on Saturday, December 6. I will be playing Christmas and other music on hammered dulcimer, perhaps with a little bowed psaltery or recorder thrown in. I hope to have more details to post as the date gets closer.
