Who knew James Taylor had it all figured out in a song? But he truly did.  The secret to life is enjoying the passing of time. It is so simple, but who says life has to be complicated? Are you enjoying this moment or have you lost it by worrying about the future or thinking about something that happened in the past? People always ask me why I'm so happy all the time.  I think it is mostly because I consciously try to enjoy the present.  After all, it is a gift. 

Blue skies, Donna

Friends of Friends....

With the help of a community, every individual can thrive. This is the fundamental ideal for the creation of Friends of Friends Booking and Entertainment. Local and regional bands and artists need to get connected with vendors and venues to create a self sustaining and self promoting music scene. With the representation of Friends of Friends, the reach of up and coming bands in local communities can become connected to regional bands, vendors can access more outlets for their merchandise and works to be distributed, and venues gain more popularity among fans and bands from all over. So make sure you like us on Facebook if you are a band that is looking for shows, or a fan looking for music!
