Hello Me, welcome back to my blog!!

It's been two years since I last posted a blog...and perhaps now is the time to change that. Part of that time I've been gone has been me getting married to a lovely woman named Tina; starting a band called Lady Blue, which in the meantime has grown into a full blown, full-time project which will see me leaving my "real" job sometime in December hopefully, to tour and slave behind our debut album, "The Meaning of Grace"; and just generally trying to become the man I wish to be.

But I feel like my creative side is taking a beating lately and I log the idea of having my own little haven to influence any reader who stops by. But, for this re-introductory blast, I'm going to sing some praises of those close and much loved to and by me.

1. http://www.thrivinginjoy.blogspot.com- This is my Honey's. Please enjoy.

2. http://www. alanpaulinchina.blogspot.com-This man means so much to me. A virtueful character in a day and age when grace and generosity are the most regal of traits.

3, http://www.gradualdazzle.blogspot.com- My friend Kris Wood, formerly of Des Moines, currently of some wayward Texas circuit. She has some interesting things to say and we've shared common experiences.

4. http://www.myspace.com/ladyblueband- This is us! Not a song posted yet from the project, but there will be within a week or two. We have a booking deal and we's be workin' real hard soon!

5. http://www.soapboxprophets.net-Some great friends of mine, as the lead singer is my boss at the "real" job, and the smoking hot lead guitarist has been a dear friend for about five years now. Please check them out and purchase "Stranger than Strange", their debut album from May of this year.

6. http://www.onapalehorse.com-Great heavy rock band, I heard they just got signed...we'll see. Awesome stuff from the heavier end of the spectrum. Another set of boys from Des Moines.

So...I'll leave you with my customary stanza...much love y'all!!

Scattered
From which I'd pull this dialect
Is all I wish would resurrect
And from towers high to rivers deep
My prophet's call and poet's dreams
Should be there in hands I see
But scattered by winds I've freed
