Hi all y'all!

I just got home after 5 music filled days in Austin, Texas. Wooow was it fun! How could it not be with over 3,000 bands performing in 5 days. And we're talking musicians from all over the world; England, Dublin, Australia, you name it. I got to see all sorts of bands, both new and old, including Devo, this crazy screamo Britt band Bring me the Horizon( fucking insane!!! check 'em out!!), NY Dolls, etc. etc. etc. Musicians were playing on street corners, rooftops, elevators, you name it!
I also got to play a couple showcases! Played one at the famous Continental Club, and then another at the live.create.lounge. I found a review that was written earlier today from my showcase last night. Check it out:

Was a pretty sweet review.
Anyhoo, glad to be back in LA, and am planning on playing more gigs out here and writing new stuff! woot woot!

Hey everyone

Hope you had a great weekend. I know I did! I was lucky enough to spend my Sunday at the Staple Center for the Grammys! Actually it was pretty tiring. I spent a long 9 hrs at the Staple Center, helping out at the sound check the morning of the show, and then staying into the evening for the actual event.

I guess the highlights for me were as follows:

-Watching Radiohead perform with the USC marching band.

-Paul McCartney talking with me backstage and showing me a "red nose day" magic trick. He explained afterwards that it was "red nose day" in England that day. So, he wore this Beatles Tshirt that had all of them wearing red noses. And he had this light up red nose he made disappear, reappear, etc. Good times.

-Having Thome and Johnny "stocking us" backstage....haha.

-Getting to talk with Neil Diamond again after 10 years!!!

-Watching Al Green, Justin Timberlake and Keith Urban practice their song together. Funny, the Grammys called Al Green around noon the day of the Grammys. He was in the bathtub when he got the call begging him to come and perform in place of Rhianna and Chris Brown!

Truthfully though, I think the Grammys have gotten too long and too commercial since being at the Staple Center. I enjoyed it much more when they were held at the Shrine.

Here's a pic of Radiohead, the USC marching band and my dad (prod/arranger) backstage after their performance at Grammys.

Talk on ya laters!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

As you know, I departed on my Cali tour a few days ago. Last night I played a Hollow's Eve show in Sac. Good times. I got to share the stage with some pretty sweet rock bands (yes, I was the acoustic relief of the night) including Sac's local band Lynus.

Let me just say that Sacramento is awesome! Went to Old Town Sacramento earlier in the day. Took some sweet pics by the old train tracks, went on a river boat, and bought a miniature harmonica. Oh, and found the greatest coffee shop yet. It's called "Temple". So, if you're ever in Sac, make sure to go downtown and hit up the "Temple" coffee house.

That's all for now
