I’m finding that being in Georgia is like . . . being in the shower all the time, except that means you NEED a shower all the time. It’s a total humidity paradox around here.
Which obviously won’t stop me from playing tonight. But it will, I guarantee, stop my guitar from staying in tune. Which also won’t stop me from playing. It’s definitely a morning of circular reasoning.
So – see you tonight!!
Cd World was great tonight. It is definitely surreal going to a gig while sitting in the back seat of a mini-van driven by your parents. It’s hard to be all sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll when you feel like you might be going to visit your in-laws on Easter.
Tomorrow – Seattle. My mom is my new roadie. If you think your mom makes a terrible roadie, think again. This a woman who has some kind of motherly sixth sense about which weirdos are really just weirdos and which ones want to make a three piece suit out of your skin. SERIOUSLY YOUR MOM IS GOOD FOR YOUR CAREER LONGEVITY.
So: see you tomorrow! The last West Coast Show before I head to that most fabulous of places The South. Where I can eat fried pickles. For breakfast. And not ONE raised eyebrow!
So that’d be tomorrow 9/23 @ Music Millennium, Portland SIX PM.
It won’t surprise you that I also left my cell phone in the fridge this week, and ALSO I bought YET ANOTHER GODDAMN MACBOOK CHARGER because it really seemed like I’d left the previous one somewhere in a distant city.
But I didn’t. Guess where it was?
GO ON GUESS.
That’s right! I put it in a big puffy envelope with some posters for safe keeping (?), and then 4 hours later I sent that envelope to Washington State, thinking it was some CDs.
Because that is really how I’m rolling the past couple weeks. With my brain blinking on and off randomly.
But the singing-playing part seems reasonably well maintained – so see you tomorrow!
I’m already so behind updating you on how fabulous the Indie Record Store Tour is. How much I COMPLETELY love it. How great it is meeting people and playing in small towns. This is the Best Idea I Basically Stole From A Friend EVER.
Of course, there is a video blog in the making. It just takes me 100 hours to edit and do stuff like photoshop my face on to Mt Rushmore . Honestly, my advice for those of you wanting to DIY your next record: spending that much time looking at your own image is VERY BAD FOR MENTAL HEALTH.
And . . . right. Tomorrow. Dimple Records in Davis. You and me. 7PM. See you then!
I’m coming to your lovely beachside paradise tonight to sing you creepy love songs . . . in the meantime, today’s San Diego Tribune has a really awesome review of the record. Check it out HERE.
See you soon!
