Well, I’m still down with Carpal Tunnel/ whatever the hell wrist issues. Been this way since January. Still can’t play at all. It suuuucks….

BUT, I haven’t let that stop me!

I had a cool dinner meeting w/ Jeff Cain of REMY ZERO to talk about my record, our mutual buddy Space Ghost, and all things musical. HELL of a great guy!

I have had a publishing deal presented to me 🙂 (still negotiating) and I got the album art in! I’ve also been working on some business and management courses, as well as honing my songwriting chops with Berklee college of music professor Pat Pattison.

Not bad for a guy with NO HANDS!!!

I try to stay busy 🙂 I’ve also been trying my hand at Golf,( weird, it doesn’t seem to bother my wrists) and intaking copious amounts of Minor League Baseball games to keep my mind off of it.

Speaking of staying busy, check out this great Edward Sandback illustration I scored at a thrift store while I was out hunting vinyls:

Senor Space Ghost has been trying to educate me on the world of art.

Speaking of vinyls, here’s my haul:

We will be doing Tampa Bay Comic Con coming up, so make sure you stop by and say hi if you happen to be there!

Here’s to hoping for a fix for my wrists,

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Migraines

The party don’t stop!!!!

Still hard at work. Proper update soon!

At some point it became business.

Now, let me explain.

I used to love music ( I STILL love music) but I used to just be able to sit and listen. There was just what it was. I’d put a song on, let it play, and it was face value. It was a good song. and I only heard it as such.

But now, I am growing up.

I’ve been doing all this study. Becoming a musician in my own right. and suddenly songs aren’t song. Songs are parts. and people. and ideas. and business. I take them apart like onions. layer by layer. not intentionally, It just happens. it just is a thing that occurs. It’s not even intentional. I hear the mix. the choice of effects. the vocal layers. The studio tricks. I can’t  hear the song anymore for the parts.

it’s bizarre.

It’s become business. I study the goings on behind the scenes. I learn about the industry. I learn backstroy. I try to see what I can take to make myself better.

It’s a climb. and I am excited about it. I am interested in all facets. Except recording. Fuck that. It’s like guitar pedals. or mathematics. Too many numbers. too much to figure out.

Bands are people. Human beings. I meet them. I am suddenly on level footing. I am learning the entertainment business. Trying to pick up as much as i can from as many places as I can. and forever meeting people. Actors are people. I meet them. and we hang out.

It’s all just people. Music. TV.

and I love people. I am good at people.

Somewhere in here is my calling, and I’m gonna find it. I’m stumbling in the right direction. That, at least, I am sure of. It makes sense. the world makes sense. The songs make sense. The parts. I can see them now. It’s a damn crazy thing.

In other news, I shouldn’t even be typing. I was struck down with carpal tunnel syndrome, or some such nonsense. I can’t play or practice at all. But I keep learning. in the other areas. Management, marketing, promotions.

What the hell am I even blabbing about. I have another Con Saturday.

Out and about with Space Ghost.

Living life one day at a time.

Thanks. For being you. and spending time with me.

Someplace’s own,
