Today marks the fifth day of posting music and tomorrow I will pause my musical journey and go back to giving my slant on this slanted world we live in. But first, check out this song I wrote in a short-lived blues/rock band I played in only a few short years ago. It has anContinue reading “Five Spot”

I Plead the Fourth
I’m back in sports heaven now that college football games and English Premier League football matches have resumed, so I continue my posting of songs I have recorded and/or written. I will resume writing in the more conventional way after Monday night’s TCU vs North Carolina game. Four straight days of music, this time allContinue reading “I Plead the Fourth”
Three in a Row
Since we are approaching the first full week of college football, I will post my music through the weekend. I wrote this song as an autobiographical dig at my crazy-ass self; a period of my existence that lasted way longer than it should have and I’m sure my behavior would have been different if IContinue reading “Three in a Row”
More Music
I had a surprisingly good response (s) from my first music post yesterday, so, keeping with that whole strike-while-the-iron’s-hot thing, I am following it up with three more songs in today’s post.. I was working as a French Executive Chef in the Midwest in the early ‘90’s and I had the occasion to run intoContinue reading “More Music”
Spanking Your Children
I know, I know. A lot of people bow up and get all froggy when they hear the “s” word, but truth be told (which I will do on occasion), there are some kids that could use a little extra somethin’-somethin’ when it comes to their discipline routine. And everyone knows who they are. GoContinue reading “Spanking Your Children”
Marijuana
I started smoking pot when I was 14 and a sophomore in high school. It seemed a natural thing to do since I was playing in a hot little rock and roll band and I did not like the smell or taste of tobacco smoke. I thought it was great that I could get aContinue reading “Marijuana”
Comeback Player of the Year
The pity party is over. I’m back for good this time. I got so down with being first hospitalized, and then confined to home nursing care and IV antibiotics for the last few months that I started getting the worst thoughts going through my head. Things like is this how it ends for me? SomeContinue reading “Comeback Player of the Year”
Thank You
Now that I’m a 1000+ blog poster, I wanted to take a minute to offer thanks to some of the key people who have each helped, in their own way, to make this one glorious ride so far. I want to thank Linda, an 8th grader (I was in seventh grade) for telling me IContinue reading “Thank You”
Am I Nuts?
I’ll be late posting this blog because, despite my insistence, I am currently texting another musician who has taken a hiatus from his successful working band Wood ‘n Steel Revival and we are in the embryonic stages of forming yet another band. I know, I know… My short-lived awesome little band Sedona we had dissolvedContinue reading “Am I Nuts?”
I Guess I Still Don’t Get It
As I flip through my FB screen, I will occasionally see something I am personally affronted and insulted by, and I take immediate steps to remove the post and any like it forever. Not so fast to pull the trigger when one of the hot internet babes flash a bikini pic occasionally. The Domestic DespotContinue reading “I Guess I Still Don’t Get It”
