Hello everypeoples and welcome to another update from yours truly.
Thanks to everybody that came from near and far last thursday night. But if you missed that show, I've got something great coming up. Starting this Tuesday (July 27) I will be releasing three videos from the show at Beatnik's every week until the full show is available on Youtube. (4 videos the last week.) That's 13 videos - an entire dvd's worth of entertainment - for free! Once it's all online, you'll be able to watch it as a playlist.
If you want a copy of the show on your computer AND support the music financially, down the road you'll be able to purchase the concert for an ridiculously low price and get a digital copy. How much? You'll just have to wait and see. A full set list will be posted up tomorrow with the first three videos.
Here's the Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuhGvRtIQPo

- It's been HOW long??!
- So yeah. I know it. It's been months! I got all caught up in playing shows and enjoying bouncing around the state that I forgot to update the blog! So let's recap the "Live at The Q" CD release and tour.
The short version: New CD = Very Yes!
Long version: I set out to record a live album. Check! I set out to sell enough CDs to raise money to donate to The Q Arts Corporation (Non-Profit Artist's Community). Check! I even managed to break even on the project and make a couple dollars. Across the months between the CD Release on January 26th and now, I've had some UH-mazing shows as well as the not so great nights where everything seems to be against me. I played with new bands and old friends and found some fantastic music to bring home on CDs and in my head. In the end it is safe to say that the project and the tour were both a great success. Mission = Awesome/Complete.
Again, I know it's been a long time and you all probably forgot about my website and my blog. But that's ok! There's only so much that can be done with internet tools before you have to go out and interact with the people and the fans and the venues. I'm not an avid blogger. And as much time as I might spend on my computer, I still have much to learn about these tools before me.
Now it is just about summertime and there are ZERO shows booked. Why, you may asked? Hopefully I will find musicians willing to get together and form a backing band for the strange sounds I dream of making. I've begun putting the call out (and here it is again.) to any Bassists, percussionists, strings-players,...horns...woodwinds...whatever you've got to share. We'll see if it works.
There's more I could write, but for now I wanted to do a short update/overview and remind you all: I'm still here and there's always more to come. Thanks to all you listeners and fans, new and old.

- New Website
- Thanks to this amazing new service from FourFour.com, I'm able to create a brand new, clean, and informative website without have to start from scratch again! It's beautiful, it's sleek, and it's all mine. Muwahahahaha.In all seriousness though, I am excited about 2010. There is so much that can be accomplished. I only need to pick which projects I want to start and run with them. Live at The Q is only a couple weeks away! Plus more shows and more merch, if I can find the time to make more (D.A.M. Bracelets, that is.) So check back soon and don't forget - January 26 : NEW ALBUM!See you soon, friends.--dam
