time to write



baltimore is a strange little town... the town that we love and we despise seemingly at the same time for the same reasons i suppose. we played the artscape on friday july 20th. foh sound was great apparently... we rushed on stage and didn't have time to check our instruments. not much fun in those regards. we were very well received by at least 100 or so people. my wife sold cd's... toddler's danced... we were a rock and roll band... even if we didn't feel like one. we were just happy to have parking reserved. that's the plus... that's on the rider... that's gold pure and simple.




so happy with the band i'm in. all parts firing nicely... it's empowering... our recognition is and renown, of sorts, is starting to grow. we may even get the fabled timmy b back into the band...




sigh




thinking about writing songs again and starting to push the boundaries... the album cora belle will be an independent release and a limited one at that... we've began prepping and demoing the next next june star disc... it will be different and much more expensive.




thank you to people who consistently come out to shows again and again... you are so appreciated it's ridiculous...




no truly




thanks.

hello blogworld,

here it is... the 3rd attempt at something real. i suppose the real test will be of endurance rather than clever words and turns of phrases. eh?

today's subject is the apocalypse

we're studying it in a master's lit. class. oh... the apocalypse doesn't seem so bad with a trick to get out of the damnation part. there's no secret like faith. for certain this time. revelations is surreal... several parts of animals sewn together to create a creatures of horror... heroic beasts with seven eyes. reminds me of prom.

music is good
june star getting great shows and air play. andrew, me, solo is going well too... becoming more comfortable with the new tunes from "wolves." how do i get to somewhere next? what level do i rise or sink to? who would listen and buy my albums.

nyc looks attractive... another good experience at banjo jims with great peoples like brian wheat...

my wife took pictures. emily fan took video... i look great in dark lighting.

sigh

pour house asks me to play.

more some time later.
