I got a cold in May. It went away except for the cough which lasted until literally last weekend. The moment it went away I came down with another cold mid-week. [Screaming] Thankfully I was healthy enough to play a coffee shop in Santa Monica last week. The host was super cool, turning up my backing tracks LOUD and letting me turn up my guitar even louder with my JHS … [Read more...] about I’ve got a cold in July

New song: “To Be An Asshole”
More tunes! I'm on a roll. Here's a little reflection on one of my lousy bosses from the past--not my current boss, who's super cool. (No, seriously! Faith in boss humanity restored.) But enough about bosses. Look at this tree! I was walking around my neighborhood in Culver City, and all the roots of this big mutha are above ground.
