desperate times

i just made a cup of coffee. i hope i don't like it, i just need my mind to wake up to work just this once. i'm a little tired from last night's 5 miles!!! and figuring out jeff beck licks before that. equally difficult. no, more difficult. check out the new rough mixes of Hyde tunes on my website featuring Andre Lovelle and his choir. also, have been adding rasberry jelly to cookie shockers at night - new name, cookie rockers.

primary colors

so my roomate joey, his girlfriend brianna, and i are running up and down blackstone blvd. we're gonna go further and further and soon do some races. i've been bikin with papa french who you probably see moonlighting on harp at solo gigs, and i'd like to swim too. could i do an iron man? DA DA, DA DA DA! that may be getting ahead of myself, i've done 20 miles on a bike, 4 running, and i look like a busted fishing lure in the water these days, but i think getting all he-manly might be nice. not to be confused with scott manley - great drummer if you're in LA. by the way if we do do some sort of running event our team is called the primary colors. joey's the blue ranger, brianna's the yellow ranger and i'm the red one of course.

i've been practicing a lot in the late hours too, diving into my old studies. jazzy, classical, and traditional they may be, but i always feel more comfortable playin blues and screamin rock when actively wankin, chopsing and being a fretboard cartographer by candle light in my off time.

drelove music's singers are coming over saturday to add some authentic LOVE LOVE LOVE to the end of I Wanna Love. that's pretty exciting, real gospel singing, on my record! i think i've got lead VOX in the can for Lay Your Fiddle Down, She Doesn't Know, and Big Dream now too, just gotta comp. the band and the solo experience have been cooking up a new original tune or 2 and i've got some new cover ideas that'll satisfy too. i do the guy singing a song originally by a girl about a guy thing backwards well. stonesy version of Hot n Cold, and a dark 6/8 Gloria Gaynor. speaking of covers, check out our gypsys at jerkys
