Cabin Fever

Hey all...

Not much new news (say THAT five times fast!), but I wanted to post to let everyone know that I'm still alive. Nothing new going on here in LA. Pretty boring actually. Now I know why I really love being on the road. There's always something new to do or somewhere new to go. I can't stand being in one place for too long.

We played the Treasure Chest casino in New Orleans Tuesday night and that was pretty fun. It was Country Night, so we focused our sets on predominantly country music. Of course, anyone who knows me knows that I had a GREAT time that night. I love playing and singing country over any other kind of music. The only bad part about the gig was that I couldn't use my in-ear monitors, which are like a combination of earplugs and headphones. I couldn't use those and I didn't have any earplugs with me, so my ears suffered for the whole night. It sucked!! You can bet I'll always have my earplugs with me from now on. Lesson learned!

I watched a little bit of the debate last night, but CMT had a Keith Urban special on, so I watched that instead... priorities!

We're playing tomorrow night at The Station here in LA, and then Saturday night is David and Elizabeth's engagement party. Then I have another whole week to hang here (and try to find a place to stay without getting in anybody's hair), we play the weekend, and then leave for tour on Wednesday.

I'm thinking I'll come home after our last gig, December 5, but I'm not sure yet. I may possibly be playing on December 18th at the House of Blues in Cleveland, OH with Tequila Sunrise, but I have to send them some demo material first. I've been talking with a few members of the group and they sound pretty interested. The only issue is that I don't want to leave David without a drummer, and I also don't want to turn down guaranteed work for a band that doesn't have a set schedule yet. Decisions, decisions...

That's about all for now. Please keep posting, I love to hear from all of you!

You know I can't say ANYTHING five times fast! (By the time I've said it twice, I've forgotten what I was saying !) "Oldtimers disease, you know!" Sorry you have your dad's affliction (Cabin Fever). But, you'll be "On The Road Again" soon...ergo....the cure! LOL MOM
