1 Prelude to a Walk in the Park

As I write, a Thomas the Tank Engine toy is dangling precariously off the edge of the table. Buddy, our 3yo performs his lines “Hep! Me srap! Me srap! Eh-pain! you come here!” (Help! I’m trapped!I’m trapped! Airplane! You come here!”

As the train pleads for an air extraction, Sweetheart, our 7yo, is building the train track and asking me if we can go to the park. Nikki and Kid, our nearly 1yo, are fast asleep and I’m trying to think of something to say to you, dear reader. I’m tired. Haven’t been sleeping well at night, even though Nikki’s been wonderful and let me sleep   in like a teenager today, and am lately a sad sack when it comes to having the brain power to focus on anything long enough to del like I’ve done any real damage to whatever project I’m on.

In other news, I owe you a song, and will be rectifying that – possibly even tonight! I have a show with Something Beautiful this weekend – featuring special guest Shreddy from Mindwarp Chamber on keyboard. Means I gotta get the performance tracks all cleaned up – now since I’ll be sitting and waiting for audio to render, I’m really hoping to have some time to sit behind a drum kit and hash out some new Ideas for Dale Tippett Jr and Tin Lolita – I’ve always enjoyed playing drums to get a guitar idea.

I’m not going to ask Auggie if I can use his kit – and I’m not worried about him finding out since he doesn’t read this blog! If he did, he’d probably leave a comment below and I’d feel just a little foolish. So if you’re not him, please don’t tell him. I think it would be a cute little experiment.

In other other news, check out Nikki’s new blog, Back Porch Confessionals.

It’s a collaborative effort between herself, my sister, and Auggie’s wife Dano. It’s about life around here, and dreaming big dreams. Hopefully I’ll have some big dreams pretty soon, but I’m pretty sure you need a good night’s sleep to get one o those. Well, the natives are getting restless, and now that the socks have been wrestled onto feet, and rocket shoes are primed for launch – imma push some kids on some swings. Hope you’re doing well, you guys!

0 And How Exactly Does One Do It All?

Quite frankly, one doesn’t – and can’t without MUCH help.

So I missed May, as far as Monthly releases go… So I’m sorry, but I’ll have a song up for you to make up for it. But by and large, it’s a busy, busy time for me and the band, also for Nikki and the kids at home, we just came off of a fundraiser that was one of SIX performances for me in a 24 hour period… We came through the weekend in tact, and are steadily marching toward BBQ Fest next week, which is shaping up to be an AMAZING weekend also – six in twenty-three hours for me plus setup and other miscellany. Then into a solid week of performing –

Between this saturday night to the following sunday: 18 individual sets of music and 8 rehearsals. I’m terrified. Weeks like these are a mix of “Living the dream! This is the life I chose!” and “What have I gotten myself into?!?!”

I anticipate having lost my voice by next thursday – but If I’m really careful, I won’t do any unwarranted damage to my vocal cords and can avoid walking into Friday morning with a fever. So pray for me, yeah? And try to make it out to one of the shows, we’re gonna kill it – even if it kills ME!

Ok, so it’s been a mega long month with TONS to do, and I missed a goal of putting some very specific music out. HOWEVER, as the larger vision that I have is to at least release one song every month, I still have today to so something.

As that something, please accept this free mp3 download of I Want Jesus to Walk With Me.

Also, check out m’kids in this cart! SO CUTE!

Now all that’s left is to try and make all that radio silence up to you! How about this – I’ll tell you the story behind this month’s free mp3 download of I Want Jesus to Walk with Me, hook you up with some awesome footage from a recent blues jam at Gallery Cabaret, and put up some highlights from my recent performance with the Shakespeare All-Stars AND invite you to my show May 9 at Chalk with the Alder Kings AND special guest Adia!?!?!

Would that be good enough for ya? 😉

We’ll see what I can do. Enjoy the song for now, you guys!

Remember these guys? I’m doing another date with them!

I’ll be appearing this month with the Shakespeare All-Stars at their “Talk Like Shakespeare Day Cabaret”, whack is going to be a KILLER night:

A variety show celebrating all things Shakespeare! Join us for an evening of original music, show tunes, sketch comedy, magic, and more! Vote for the brand new scene you want to see and the All-Stars will perform it! Flaunt your genius in a round of Shakespeare Trivia! Win amazing raffle prizes!

Here’s location and cover:
Mary’s Attic, 5400 N. Clark St.
Wednesday, April 23 at 7 pm
Tickets: $15 at the door, cash or credit

I’ll be flying solo, for a short performance, but I can’t stress enough how the whole thing is going to be stellar. The Shakespeare All-Stars put on one hell of a show, and the only reason to skip a chance to see them is that you just hate fun.

This ain't you, is it?

This ain’t you, is it? Didn’t think so.

I’ll have all the other info up in the Events section of the site pretty soon, so stay tuned!
