that i like that right on that order up ok we'll be right back in just a minute and i think we might have another one coming out here in just moments just moment you never know those things are so thick they take a long time thanks for coming out here now we'll be the way back to when we go back a long way that's so good to see you and so good to be here as well as great and i you know you've done so many projects music project with so many bands you're a real working musician i think back in the day you were working for five keep playing and i don't ever take it for granted because a lot of great players out there right now that are sitting at home io i've always said for every one guy play and there's ten guys i don't want to play that is so i always want to ever take it for granted and i appreciate the fact i'm sort of well you know that's all what it is it's about the music and about the relationships in the contacts and in our business and what you've done to me i know that you stand in contact with a lot of people in bass which you have to do you have to contact some of these business owners that never done music before it's a networking process and you know it's one thing that you find them along to do this it's always been about the music but the long you do it the business the music business it's really actually there was a book that came out a long time ago had a sports or whatever you get up every morning yeah and you say it is a business i need to go to work i need to practice work need to make a phone call really you really do because there's like i said to somebody right behind you wants to give your play and i can tell you know what the person which the most you know a lot of times they will get it but you have to keep going after some awesome we're going to take a chance or to get billy blackstone in here i'm mr sachs man billy come on and i want to squeeze i'm in right here here we are with mr billy blackstone o was beautiful a lot of people turned out but you were the business manager of that end sense then you've created quite a different avenues for yourself having you know yes i have actually went back to my roots smooth jazz mellow stuff girl from ipanema autumn leaves stuff like that yeah yeah i really enjoy doing that's a different thing and then i mix it up when i have a duel with tim turner or join a couple other musicians i hire now thought you actually put a show on you connected with the crowd yeah thank god for tim yeah mr comedian over here over to the right here and have a good time and very funny but i never made much money but i always have a real good you rock  billy works quite a bit he does a lot of different projects and i know you work with a lot of different projects but you were always a activists if you will for the music business in the rights to musicians and and my gosh we should talk about that twenty years ago now fast forward today what's happened with that activism is that you have with the music well actually it was a lot more active when i was writing for your newspaper the jet city review just city yeah and you know but i kind of take a different angle now just more of a personal positive thing rather than you know forking about how bad things are you know i think that's more of an obvious thing to you know that are knowledgeable about it so i just kind of try do my part to make it better and you work on and you put money in other musicians pockets don't you don't you kind of do it some booking for other fact caps i was for many years i'm not booking that much anymore in the seattle blue star agency is kind of on hold i  really with the economy and all that kind of thing i'm just focused more on my own act and keeping guys like tim work and so you are working and what about this place or this is like  original owner of north lake approached me and my husband at that time who has since passed you can and asked us if we would be interested in purchasing northlake he was he was ready to retire and he wanted to sell but he wanted to sell to thing well cheryl i love the atmosphere this is the first time i've been here i've heard about this place for polly two thousand five thirty years never gonna get around here and i am so glad i came in to night because i tasted your your hawaiian special that's called special and i had your your number one signature dish and that was absolutely fabulous and so a good job for keeping it the way it has been and continue on with that i guess another twenty four years is
