Back in the saddle again! The tour resumed in St. Louis and a desperate nation sighed in relief. We had a week off at home with nothing to do. Well, actually we had some major construction in the backyard… and we flew to LA for a few days for business… and oh, yeah… we played a show at the Bluebird. But other than that… we were totally off. Now the world is back on it’s axis and I sit in the dressing room aft our first show of this run… (more…)

Summer Tour: Anaheim

If you really believe in something then you don’t mind wearing yourself out in the name of promoting it. We really believe in this band and this CD, and we are grinding and grinding out the miles to make sure that at the end of the year we look back and know that we did […]

We get the occasional gesture from members of our BSRmy (still working on making a that a “thing”)… a card here… a tin of salted nuts there. Tonight the bar was raised very high. She made us a wedding cake!

Summer Tour: Hotels

I totally get Keith Moon now. I grew up reading about his hotel tantrums. The TVs sailing out windows, the cars in pools. I get it now. I really do. There is something about being on the road that drives you nuts. And the main Nut-Driver (patent pending) is your hotel room. (more…)
