We are elated that Fur Peace Productions will present Don Was and The Pan-Detroit Ensemble at Stuart's Opera House in Nelsonville, Ohio, on October 10th at 7pm. I've known Don since the Dear Jerry concert at the Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD, where Don Was served as the event's music producer and music director. I was always a huge fan. I remember the level of talent at that show. I met and saw so many of my heroes: Jimmy Cliff, Don, and fellow musicians I'd played with over the years.
This show has been on our bucket list since 2024. Tickets go live on our site and at Stuart's Opera House at 10 am on July 14th, so mark your calendar and be ready to be blown away. This is a can't-miss event! - Jorma

Our lives are full. David and I wrapped up two weeks on Martha’s Vineyard teaching two separate finger-style guitar classes. As always, we feel blessed to be able to continue our Fur Peace On The Road classes in these special places. We couldn’t do the MV experience without the graciousness of David Wolff and of course our Fur Peace alum. There’s always a few days in between classes to take it all in. I got to play a show at the wonderful MV Film Center and sit in with David at a fun joint called Town in Edgartown and spend the day walking my favorite beach. Like they say, ‘Life is Good’ ! See you at the next On The Road Workshops in San Diego in early 2027.
