May 23rd

This is just a super quick little blog post.  Apparently... I have a show.  I probably should be promoting it more but I'm not sure if I really want the whole place to be jam packed really since I haven't played a show in forever.  But I'm excited about playing a show.  I think it will be a lot of fun.  I'm going to be playing for about a half hour.  It's just at the Pickering Creek Inn... It's the variety show that my friend Melissa runs, the girl that I gave out free hugs with.  She asked me to play one of the spots for that night.  Soo woooo!  I've been practicing and trying to figure out a set list for that show.  It should be fun.

As far as playing live goes... I've been playing some open mics recently, trying to ease my way back into it, but they only give you two songs.  With two songs, by the time you are getting warmed up, it's all over.  I feel as though having an entire show spot to play several songs will be a pretty cool time and really allow me to have some fun on stage and really get into it.  So there ya go.  Baby steps.  Isn't that the phrase?  Baby steps.  Maybe I'll start booking more and more shows.  We'll see.  I really also want to start woking on recording more and finish a new song.  I haven't finished a song in a while.  I do have some more song recordings that I've been working on so I'm hoping that I can finish another one soon and get back to posting more new material as well as playing the older stuff live.  Anyways, that's the plan.  So there ya go.  A live show.  Come May 23rd I'll be strumming my guitar and singing out several of my songs.
