Enduring a grueling stint the first week of June with the NYC Allstars on the island of Provenciales, Turks and Cacios, somehow Jeff got through it all without spilling any of the Pina Coladas, or getting eaten by either of the two 10 ft sharks he saw while scuba diving..... or even injuring his neck from drive-by, topless, half bikini-clad "Mermels" he encountered during his tenure on the island near Cuba and Haiti.... As it has been said before, "Life is a beach!!".....ah well, back to real work....

It was almost 15 years ago when Jeff and Joe worked together for the better part of a year, on a world tour including Australia, Europe and the US. Jeff and Joe get a chance to catch up for moment at the New Orleans Jazz Fest. (photo M. Erlanger)

Jeff's first trip to New Orleans Jazzfest also coincided with CSN's first performance at the annual festival. As synchronicity would have it, just before CSN's set was The Subdudes, who are not only one of Jeff's favorites, but also includes musicians Jeff is collaborating with songs on his debut solo release. (Jeff was invited to sit in for the "Dudes"encore at the House Of Blues a few nights earlier). Jeff insisted that his partner, David Crosby come out to see the Dudes set before CSN played...To everyone's surprise all three CSN joined Jeff sidestage for the inspired event. "It was a joy for all concerned!" Peev reported. "The Dudes played their ****** hearts out!"

Jeff visited his two nieces, Lianna and Elena at Norfeldt Elementary School in West Hartford, CT on Valentines Day to perform a couple tunes for them and their other 8 year old classmates. "I was totally blown away. All those beautiful kids and I were singing "Blackbird" together. What an honor! Ya know, it just doesn't get any better than that!" .
