felt so good to stay home today and do nothing, no rushing to get all my stuff together, to go somewhere, and as of right now i am in absolute no danger of having a hangover tomorrow,

had a real good weekend, played lots of songs, and more importantly, we moved lots of product

i played a song swap with shad and Wesley joe on wednesday night, those boys are top notch at making up songs, and we had us a very cool crowd to sing to

thursday me and shad hung out in holly bond, shad recorded 10 new tunes, and lanny just happened to be the only guy watching the store, so i got to engineer the project, which consisted of me sitting in the room with all the nobs and pointing at shad thru the big glass when it was time for him to start another tune, all the while i was drinking orange gatorade and rubbing my head...the night before kicked my ass

then me and the band had 2 good gigs in a row, played with the exit 110 band, good cats, go check em out if you get a chance, they believe in the original tune, and i do too

talked at my old buddy casey cainan today, he was in north dakota, says he will be back around here in early november, and ready to make a new record, he is a song writing maniac, says he gets his inspiration from elephant shit, i might have to try that, because the dog shit aint working

speaking of

adam walker comes out to the house the other day (adam is that crazy guy in the miles from nowhere band) he's got his beagle pup with him, my 2 dogs are about to rip him apart, so i tell adam to bring him in the house, well we turn our back and the dog shits on the tile, adam cleans it up, we sit down to talk, and shad points out that the dog just pissed on the big screen....what the hell

and the first thing adam said was, "man he ain't never done this"

but back to casey,

he said he walked in a music store in montana a few weeks ago, seen a picture of townes van zandt on the wall, he got to talking to the guy that ran the place and come to find out they were old friends (tvz and the guy that runs the joint) then the guy walks in the back and comes back with an old gibson hummingbird that used to belong to the man himself, casey said he sit down and played marie on it


how cool is that my friend


thursday night love and war in grapevine, come watch miles from nowhere get it on

they win, we win, thats the way it works

adios
