rumors of my demise

after some time off in order to go through the dt's, gain artistic perspective and try to begin to repay old personal debts....here is my latest blog to get things back into forward motion.

after setting the band loose last year and taking to the hwy on my own.........solo, with nothing but harps, a guitar and a hat to shield myself, i found myself with nothing left. my best friends wouldn't return calls, i was miles away from the people i love and growing increasingly out of touch with what the hell i thought i was doing........hence, i pulled the plug and went to work driving a semi. the dirt road daycab variety hauling sand, rock, heavy equipt. and steel material. easy enough due to my friends who helped with the testing process and pointers on the safe operation of one of those ominous big rigs.

this is simply a quick note of thanks to the friends who have sent notes asking if rumors of my demise were premature. enough bout me.

the great roger miller once said that as a writer, sometimes the well runs dry and you have to let it fill back up again..the well is filling up and thanks to lester and cassandra tomei and kai thietje we are still afloat here at the website....we are looking to put together a few dates in the late spring around some of our old haunts................we hope all is well with you and those you love.
