O.K. the ball is rolling once again.God it feels good to be back in the business of making music.It has been a long journey to get to this point, but it was worth it.I am as happy as a clam.The music is once again pouring out of me.Two new songs in the last weeks and gigs up the wahoo! yahoo! I dare you to follow your hearts desires and manifest those things in your life that you always wanted to do!

Back in the saddle, not really

O.k. yeah I rode my bike across the country and started a band in California.Here's the video to prove it.This year has been about doing what I want.Life is short live hard and like you mean it.

Here we go again!

My buddy Gavin suggested I get back to the blog, so here goes.The past few months have been crazy.Running around to open mikes all over the county. Meeting musicians and just lots of people in general.For the past month I've been rehearsing with the musicians who are going to back me for my first show.January 21st. at the Alternative Cafe.On Sunday morning I'll have my first radio appearance on //www.kpig.com/ You can listen live or check in later to hear the performance.That's at 10a.m. in the west or 1p.m. eastern time.Photo shoots, press releases,and shameless self promotion. let's see what happens.I am very well indeed.Stay tuned...

Playing in the river
A beautiful day for a ride through Big surI'm still trying to get my head around the fact that I rode my bike out hereJesse and Kody riding the big sur riverkissing catfish I spent last weekend camping in big sur. Still playing open mikes and searching for a gig.Been to the dentist and spent some serious cash on a new front tooth.The DMV got me for a thousand as well. It's been a very expensive week, but I was getting nowhere walking around looking like a toothless hillbilly crackhead without a California drivers license.

The honey hole

As you can see I've been keeping myself busy building things.I've also been spending time in the garden tending to the lettuce,beets,and radishes I planted.The weather here has been beautiful.This weekend is the Monterey jazz festival,I'm going to try and catch some of it.I did an open mike night in Monterey on Wednesday and even took part in the poetry slam.

It's always a trip moving to a new place and getting yourself intigrated.I forgot how lonely it can be when you don't really know anyone and your trying to find a place to fit in.I'm not drinking to deep from the well though.Soon I'll find the honey hole and have both paws in it.For now, it's me, myself, and I getting to know one another all over again...
