First off, welcome to my new bloggy website. Now you can find all my ramblings right here on my home page! As you can see, I’ve broken it all down into categories. I spent some time today transferring a lot of my old MySpace blogs over here, which was a nice trip down memory lane. I think my favorite one might be my first tour blog, which looked back at the crazy road trip that got our spring tour started.
I found out today that Ryan Freeland, the fabulous engineer/mixer of my album (plus those of artists I idolize, like Aimee Mann, Joe Henry), has been featured in the October issue of MIX magazine. Check out the article! Like the gracious guy he is, he mentioned my name in the interview. Thus, I too am in MIX magazine.
Speaking of talented friends, today I had a guitar lesson with Tim Young, and it was great! I felt like I’d made real progress and I had a blast. There’s always more to do, but it may not be too long now before I take some solos public! Tim will eventually make me, I’m sure. After my lesson, I headed over to my friend Erin Hauber’s to look at her final t-shirt design (I’m going to finally have a t-shirt!), and then we took a field trip to American Apparel (yay! field trips!) to get some color ideas for the shirts. I think we’ve settled on some, and we had a great time hanging out. I have some talented friends, I tell ya. And I thank them for a great day!
