At Caito's house

This is a shot of me sitting with Miguel while Caito is in the back fixing some Brazilian barbeque. I'm sorry not to have more
shots of Caito as he is really an amazing Brazilian musician, composer and percussionist. And a great host. We are doing a duo
gig Oct. 2nd at a small theatre here in Sao Paulo. I was really, really tired and sick this day so we took it easy. Caito, his wife Regina and son Miguel were incredibly gracious hosts; I had to sleep there a bit while my kids were all over the place while our hosts were so supportive and happy to have us. I really wish I had more time to work out more stuff with Caito. He's performed
with just about everyone in the Brazilian jazz and pop scene: Milton Nascimento, Toninho Horta, Egberto Gismonti, Hermeto Pasqual, Rita Lee, Turtle Island String Quartet, John Scofield. He's also a great writer-I'm playing something he wrote for me on his new album. It's so difficult when I'm playing 10 shows a week and getting really, really exhausted to do something along the lines of what I was doing creatively before I joined this show. But we will do our best when we can.
