Is This Interesting?
Thoughts/feelings that just might not matter:
I’m off today. Bound for Seattle via Portland via Phoenix. Three shows with Raina Rose sounds fun to me. It’ll be a treat just to get out of this 100 degree weather. The shows are listed here, and I’d sure appreciate any word-spreading you can do for me.

Last time I visited the area, I was with Matt the Electrician & Casey Holford. We rocked a few venues, including Mississippi Studios, where I actually met Raina. That night, there was a near-riot when I played “Everyman” and had to confess it was not on any of my CDs. That’s a bittersweet feeling. Well, almost two years later, it still is not available, but I’m closer than ever to getting that done.

What else? I was in Portland on September 11. Yup, 2001. Remind me to tell that story sometime. For now, I have to pack.

Freshly-picked quotes from the ol’ reference collection:
Steer clear of overviews. Those of us who have the situation in Lebanon in perspective and know exactly how to plot a gay rights campaign are usually morons. We snap at our children when they have innocent homework questions. We don’t notice when our lover has a deadline. We forget to call our best friend back when she’s just had a root canal.

Homework, root canal and deadlines are the important things in life, and only when we have these major dramas taken care of can we presume to look at the larger questions.
