Blogging is for people with time...

Apparently, blogging is hard to do when you are frantically trying to keep your head above the water... Life has been crazy busy for me, but somehow I manage to keep playing music. Sometimes I'm not sure how I fit it all in, but in the end it always seems to work out OK.

By now, I wanted to be so much further ahead with the blog and websites updates, but I'm sure that's what everyone says during these types of transitions. The way I figure, once I get comfortable with updating this blog, I'll be posting much more frequently. I have to admit, all the available free web tools these days are a lot more efficient then the old ways of having to code it all in HTML, etc. That said, I'm still striving to find a good "one stop shop" that conveniently does everything I need without all the MySpace-type advertising, spam and other "personals" crap that goes along with it. So, I guess I'll give this a try for a while and see how things work out... at least until I find something better. ;)

So what have I been up to? Well, long-story-short, a funeral, a wedding... it's starting to sound like a movie title, isn't it? ... 2+ gigging groups and a couple side recording projects with former band mates. This week alone I've got 3 practices, 2 public performances, and one private party. Not exactly a typical week - it just kind of happened. Oh well, I suppose it's keeping me out of trouble!

In any case, go check out my online performance schedule for upcoming shows. Down Maddie is coming out of the basement again this month (2nd month in a row!) and will be performing with our new friends FishFight and Reckless Red. If you can make it out to the show @ Bushwackers Saloon, we'd love to have you. There's no cover... just a great band line-up and some definite good times to be had by those who can make it. FishFight will be opening up the show at 9 pm, we will be going on around 10, and Reckless Red will finish off the night. Hope to see you there!
