Hello!  Told you I was going to write more! 

Augur has really been doing well.  We are partially through getting a demo done and it is very exciting.  We are preparing to play two upcoming events and our set list is coming together well!!  Since mid December when we play it is just solid and for that I am forever grateful to whatever power makes it possible!  Our group at this point can speak freely to one another, direct each other and draw pure personal power from each other.  We started our tuesday practice session with a song that is traditionally rough and not a favorite of one of our members.  It ripped!!  It was everything I expect from myself in a band proven by the peope I play with!  Mr S ripped out an inspired string of solos all night and the few songs we worked on came from "I don't know" to "Damn!!  That kicked ass!".  Another member set aside their feelings of nervousness and absolutly made a song that was good Great!  Wow!  This is the way I feel that everyone wants it to be when they are in a band.  No Fear and Nothing left on the table!!  This is why I say "it is an honor to make music with you people" so often(and sometimes I get some crap for it).

Bonds Forever: My ever Loving and Devoted Wife!  I cannot explain in words what a supporting force She is to me.  She makes me want to do better in everything. Above all the best thing to ever happen to me.  I Love You (and I swear i will grow up some day)!  My Family! Acceptance without expectation and understanding with out judgement.  I love you all!  Very much! I can never expect that I will ever be able to do this...in this way ever again in my life.  It is so right I cannot believe it can ever happen again.  I am lucky to be here.  I am amazed at how much desire and vigor that these people want to help me make my songs real...and make them their own at the same time.  No egos, no drama, not to be famous.  Just to make good music, for us right here, right now.  These are bonds that for me that will be forever.  Forever!

Lucky man

I am way excited about the band, and the direction we are headed. I can't help but feel my involvement was 13 years in the making. What ever devine force (Fate, God, Buddha, the Goddess, whatever...) you want to believe in had a plan for me. I was to set aside my dreams and ambitions for mayself, and build a life with Val. The same goes for her, too. Now, we have our together times, and our apart times. My time away from her is the band, and I don't take that for granted, at all. It's a priviledge for me to join together with y'all, and make our joyful noise.

And for the record, Mrs D is a saint for putting up with us in the basement. make sure you tell her I said so.

Oh, and while becoming a famous rock-god-guitar-hero is not my goal, I not against it, either.

Levi, the more and more I play with you guys, the more I feel it is an honor to make music with YOU people!! It is so much fun and it never seizes to amaze me how well we all fit together and can make a really bad day so much better. I love everyone and I am so honored you guys let me jam with you guys. Your passion and dedication is really inspirational and I don't know how I lived so long with the band and the family. I am with you and will seize this great moment we're in.

You really have the greatest wife in the world. I LOVE HER! (She knows it.) ;) Her patience is amazing and she's just awesome!!!
