"We just finished recording the songs from our shows for our CD. Right onto that! Now another couple of months for the final mix down. We are targeting early December to have it ready for the CD presses.

"On October 1st Rick & Wayland will be trying out some new material at Dance Theater Workshop as part of DTW's "Hit & Run Festival." (Perry will still be out of town then). Their reservation line is 212-691-6500. Just to let you know this will be a showing of works-in-progress along with another group. Should be a short evening......we think."
