The state of things and, you know, whatever...

OK, so, I've said it before here and I'm gonna say it again (and perhaps mean it this time), I will begin really trying to update this blog on a much more regular basis. Yeah, I know, you're snickering and saying that you've heard (read) this before, but I kind of sort of really mean it this time.

That being said, here's what's on my mind lately. I've been back to writing, scribbling, sketching, formulating and piecing together ideas, thoughts, and concepts in my various personal notebooks and journals. What I've found in doing so, is what I know is going to the be the framework and brunt of a brand new 6 Hands Down CD! Along with with sitting down and putting pen or pencil to paper, I've also been working up bits and pieces of music in a very raw, demo format on my 16 track. This is a very, very exciting time for me creatively. I felt as though, for whatever reason, I was a bit stalled on the music front with new ideas. I was actually a bit worried about that concept. But I found that, like any of life's other struggles and barriers, I simply needed to power on through, and I tell you folks, I really, really like what's been starting to happen.

As I said, much of what's been happening is still in the outline, raw scraps and idea stage, but I'm really liking where it's heading. This new material and CD is going to be, as a whole, far deeper into the blues vain. After typing that, I immediately had to ask myself, "what the hell does that mean?". Well, to put it in as simple of terms as I can come up with, I'm hoping that when you finally get a chance to hear the end result, that you'll really "feel" this music in a very, very deep sense. That's my goal.

This is an awesome time in the process. Anything could happen as this all takes shape and that's really ignited a fire under me. It's consuming me and that's a good thing!

I'll keep you posted along the ride!

Please keep checking the website and try and catch some shows if you get a chance. We sure would love to see you there!

Try and smile at somebody today that you never would have thought of smiling at before. That would be a step towards all of us helping to make this world a better place!

All the best to you! Up, up and away!
