- The Latest and Greatest
- I'm going to try to keep this short...
I've started working with my good friend Shane Hall, playing guitar and singing harmonies, in the new line-up for his band The TickleBomb Orchestra. These guys I'm working with are a blast and I'm learning every second we're playing. There's a couple dates coming up - September 4th for one, which is The Open Road Festival. (Follow the link to buy tickets.) I'll clue you in on facebook with the other dates when I've got them.
Also coming in September is my birthday. Now, I'm not big on birthday parties or presents. I've had plenty of that by now. I've decided instead to turn a show into a birthday bash. September 23, I'll be back at Beatnik's with The Smile Makers (and hopefully a couple surprise guests) to celebrate life. To make the event extra special, I'll be broadcasting the show online. So if you can't be there, you can enjoy interact with me and enjoy from home or where ever you are if your mobile device is capable. I'll post info as soon as the details are ironed out, but you can be sure we're going to have fun with this!
If you haven't noticed, I've also begun work on an animated short film. I'e already talked about it in a previous post, so I'll just share the link again to the project blog.
I think that's it for now. As always, there's more to come.

- Animated Short Project
- Hey everyone! I just wanted to share the link to my secondary blog dedicated to the process and goings-on of the film project I've started with a few of my siblings. It's based on music I've written. I came up with a loose plot line and we're expanding from there in a collaborative effort to create something fantastic. It's explained better over here. And It Hurts: Film Project
Be sure to subscribe to both my blogs to keep up with whats going on and don't forget that Tuesday Aug. 17 is the last installment of the Live at Beatnik's video series on YouTube!
