When Rick moved from Florida in 2000, Don kept Desperado going with various musician friends from over the years... Finally in 2007, at the minipulation of long time Guitarist Friend Kenny Morgan, Don booked a Club date for Desperado as a Single act with Sequenced Music accompanied by his Live Guitar & Keyboard work..
