....and I’m afraid, it’s not good. I am finding myself not eating right lately - and it’s more so out of emotional issues. I’m noticing an extra amount of procrastinating too and it’s like I’m ...

This Should Be Fun

In the last few years I have worked on being in the best shape I’ve been since I was a teenager. However, and apparently, all the years touring and eating what I wanted has taken an irreversible...


I managed somehow to get inspired to write a new song. I’m amazed that the topic of the song was my grandfather. Why does that amaze me? May is simultaneously his birthday month and the month ...

Perspective

Lately, I have been thinking. I have a lot to be thankful for. I have a lot to be grateful for. Despite the hardships that I may have had growing up - mine don’t compare to some that were way wo...

Faced with my past

I was watching a documentary about a famous person that ultimately took their own life. They had spent a long time with anxiety and panic attacks. This was a slap in my face because I deal with ...


Geez! Lately, I have been getting into my feels. I have spent my entire life basically detached from everything. A few times in my life I have leaned into allowing someone to know my true feelin...

Fish out of water

I had the opportunity to be invited to an awards show this week. It was pretty cool. Got to sit next to some pretty famous people. I think I made a fool out of myself one time during the show. T...

Spiralling

It feels like I am spiralling. It feels like nothing ever goes the way I need for it to go. It’s been this way since I can remember as a kid. I actually took a nap this afternoon for 25 minutes ...


I am a firm believer that if selfishness were a crime punishable by death the world would achieve world peace in 3 years. I was at a mall with my family yesterday the inconsiderate nature of p...


Been on a mini vaca for a few days. Didn’t realize how bad I needed it.

Why so Weird

For the Kid that used to dream - I’ve been having some weird ones lately. Also, as someone that finds dreams fascinating I’m often looking for the hidden meaning. I feel like it’s our natural wa...

If I'm Being Honest

If I’m being honest I am never actually honest with myself. I tend to lie to myself a lot. I tell myself things that I already know I don’t believe. Recently, I tend to believe that no matter ...

What I Did Not Do Today

I actually missed going to church on Easter. It’s been 2 decades, at least, since that’s happened. Honestly, I don’t even feel bad about it. I grew up in the church. All of my musical background...

Good Friday my....

Don’t get me wrong - I love working from home but sometimes I get tired of the 4 walls! I get tired of being the person answering the questions. I get tired of having to keep up the moral. I get...

The Cook

My grandfather told me a story once that I NEVER understood. The older I get the more I get it. This cook spent a lot of years perfecting his customer’s favorite dishes. Especially, one custom...

Incognito

From time to time, I help out a friend at a their catering job. I don’t need the money but doing something that doesn’t require my brain is liberating. Also, it’s funny to me that most of the pe...

I'm apparently changing

This week I have endured a disgruntled colleague use their keyboard to smear me. Any other time, I would have launched into them and burned them to no end. This time, I thought what if they are ...

Ahhhhh

Every now and then I am booked at a church for music. I don’t particularly care for it because it feels like they are always more demanding. Here I am just getting to bed after spending several ...

Weird Dreams

Last night I experienced more emotions in one dream than I can keep track of. I don’t think the context of what the dream was about is necessary to remember - but the emotional rollercoaster I e...

I Prefer Busy

This past week I flew across the country and managed to squeeze in a board meeting, a networking event, gave a Ted Talk with a partner, did some sightseeing, managed to do a 5 minute comedy bit ...

The Lone Loner

When I was growing up our family pretended to be tight. We went on vacations. We took time to go to the drive-in because 5 movies for 10.00 a car made much more sense than 7.00 a piece for one m...


I have to wear a few hats. When I’m on the road I am both the road manager, production manager and the band leader. Somewhere in the mix, I’m the artist. At home, I am the office manager, legal ...

Another Work Trip

My work trip yesterday and today landed me in a casino. I probably could have stretched my trip an extra day, but we have apocalyptic storms moving through our area so I thought I better get bac...

Figure it out

I believe that when things don’t go your way you can be the element of confusion or you can figure out how to make the best of it and leave a positive impression. I looked around the meeting a...

Business trip...

We are currently on a business trip (1 of 2 for this month). This one is 3 days and was supposed to be full of meeting some industry people. It turns out as soon as we were about an hour from ho...


Book Description

The path my life has taken has left me with more questions than answers. I always believed that whatever you dreamed and worked hard for it would happen. At some point I woke up and the 9 year old little boy who dreamed of selling out stadiums and playing music apparently, was never born.
