Hiya friends,
Iowa has, yet again, become chilly. I'm not sure I
understand why this keeps happening. it goes on for months at a time,
and then stops. Just when I think things are back to normal, 8 or 9 months
later, it gets cold again. Maybe our state is broken. I recently caught
swine flu, by the way. Very proud to be a statistic.
So here's
what's up. Just a couple of shows this month, both in Ioway, and then
I'll be taking a small hiatus. Why, you ask, am I taking a hiatus? I
don't really seem to do much anyway, I suppose, but the down time is
legitimate.
Firstly, the band is taking a little break because
our most wonderful of Hammond B3 organ players, Megan Valencia, is due
to have a baby at the end of the month, which she created with Billy
Valencia, our handsome and charming bass thumper. That's half of the
backing band gone, so it's kind of a no-brainer that we won't be
playing for a while.
Additionally, I'll be using this time to work radio for my new album, as well as the new albums from The Mayflies and Matthew Grimm & The Red Smear (Mud Dauber Records
bands, all). So I'll be working. Plus, I've been lame and need to
deliver albums to some more of the amazing musician types who helped to
make the new album happen.
So final show with the band in Dubuque at the Silver Dollar Cantina next week, then a solo acoustic show in Iowa City at Uptown Bill's the following week, then I'll be missing for a while. I will, however, be Tweeting and Facebookin', so feel free to check in.
Finally, here's LL Cool J like you probably haven't seen him, because I love you and it will make you smile:
Stay warm,
-Patrick
