Lay Off The Text, Bro!

Hi Gang-

Sorry for the delay in posts over the weekend and this week! I am trying to busy myself with enough music stuff to keep me away from the computer and it seems to be working!

I had several good rehearsals over weekend. A couple with Roger, the bass player and Beans and a couple without Roger. Beans and I are really clicking well together and Roger is fitting in quite nicely also. He’s so good he can play and text message on his cell phone at the same time! OK, he wasn’t THAT good while he was doing it, but it was funny! LOL! Beans and I snuck in an extra rehearsal on Monday while he was out of work, and man it was great!

Last night, as some of you know, I got to go back down to San Antonio again for another Texas Songwriters Night at Casbeers! Kim and Glenn and Chris were GREAT as always, and I got up pretty early, to a really big crowd. Man, it was fun! I have say, that there was an 11-year old girl there who I was REALLY impressed with. She had such a good presence and sound. She is going to be killer when she’s older.

I did two songs last night due to the number of folks who showed up, or I would have normally peformed three. The first was a brand new number called, “Bright & Firery Light” and then another newer, but not as new, track called, “Move On.” The crowd really seemed to dig them and I got them on DV tape and CD for reference. Not sure that they will be available anytime in the near future, but we’ll see.

I contacted a guy named Ken Fountain today who just finished animating this GREAT video for Glen Phillips’ tune, “Brain Trust Kid.” You HAVE to see this video. Head over to Glen’s site to check it out! I basically thanked him for doing such an outstanding job and also asked him if he would be interested in working on a video for “Weatherman” or any other tracks of mine.

Speaking of video… Thanks to Jacob Brown, I am now editing the DV footage from the summer tour FINALLY!! I have started by trying to put together a video for “Broken Spoke” but I hope to eventually also do a basic tour overview video as well and turn into some kind of DVD or maybe a press kit thing. Hmmm…what do y’all think?

OK. I guess that’s all I got for now. Thanks for staying in tune with me. Let me hear from you if you’re out there reading this!
