Whenever I go somewhere in my town, inevitably (but not often), I will hear something from a teenager or pre-teen: “I like your style!” Hmmm…I look like a hybrid of 70s/80s but with my own sense of…style? I wear what feels good. Whether it’s t-shirt/jeans/sneakers, or leather jacket/flannel shirt/Doc Martens, I’m just me. I neverContinue reading ““I LIKE YOUR STYLE””

I SHOULD BE…
I should be at NAMM this weekend. I should be walking around, visiting booths and pretending to be a guitar god for a few days. I should be working on new music but then realize people only want familiarity. I should be a step ahead of seasonal depression but it’s kicking my ass. I shouldContinue reading “I SHOULD BE…”
STICKING AROUND
I was going to deep-six this website. It’s kind of dead wood to me, and at least I’m being honest about it. But what’s preventing me from doing so? Aside from posting pics of funky gear? I feel it would be a big disservice to my friend Alexx Calise, who suggested I do this siteContinue reading “STICKING AROUND”
XMAS CAME LATER!
Is this not the longest January ever? Seems like that to me. But Xmas came later in the form of three new pieces of gear!!! First up: Orange Micro Dark 20 watt amp head. Like the Micro Terror, it has a tube in the pre-amp and the rest is solid state. Which means…THIS THING CRANKS!!!Continue reading “XMAS CAME LATER!”
FIRST GIG OF 2025…AND I DIDN’T EXPECT IT!
New Years Eve 2024…I receive a Facebook message: “If you good for this Friday, black river barn. 10pm show” So my last day of the year started off with being needed for a Supernova gig four days later. And I didn’t expect to hear about any shows until maybe March/April. Threw on a new setContinue reading “FIRST GIG OF 2025…AND I DIDN’T EXPECT IT!”
LAST SINGLE OF 2024
I sat on this particular piece of music for about a year, waiting for the right sounds to come to me. I had the guitar part already, just needed that extra something. After some time had passed, the rest of it came to me. I present to you the final single of 2024 entitled “AlwaysContinue reading “LAST SINGLE OF 2024”
THE GOOD ASPECTS OF 2024…
Not that anyone asked, but while I put my guitar god aspirations away, I decided to compile a list of the good aspects of 2024. See how many you remember: Played a bowling alley. Played a golf course. Played a farm with a corn maze. (Maybe I will play a ski slope in the future?)Continue reading “THE GOOD ASPECTS OF 2024…”
JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS
How I spent my Friday afternoon… Thought I didn’t have the files for these albums but surprise surprise! Thank goodness for Dropbox, which I had forgotten about (oops!) Since I had no plans today, why not play these songs that I’d not heard nor performed in years, and remind myself of how overly ambitious IContinue reading “JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS”
IS THIS WHAT INNER PEACE FEELS LIKE?
When I took that selfie a few days ago, my joke was “The sun hit my hair just right.” Then I took a good long look at it, and noticed something. Is this what inner peace feels like? I can’t say for sure but my face doesn’t show any desperation anymore, nor any signs ofContinue reading “IS THIS WHAT INNER PEACE FEELS LIKE?”
WHO AM I, REALLY?
I am typing this on Thanksgiving night. I must have written, re-written, and threw out this blog a few times this week, looking for the right words to print. Today felt like the right day to do it. So why is there a picture of Prince at the top? Read on… Last night I gotContinue reading “WHO AM I, REALLY?”
