Hal & Teresa's summer of Love, join us

Several interesting things happening this summer with Teresa, me and also my producing partner Taki Telonidis.  I hope you might find some interesting and if you are in the neighborhood stop by. Each live event will have some remote way to access it -- web, cd’s, telepathy….

Don’t hesitate to write me for more detailed information,

Happy Summer, Hal
