I picked up the new MOJO magazine because of the Fleet Foxes cover but when I got to the page with the Dylan interview I got so giddy I was almost too nervous to read. But, I composed myself and gobbled it up. Whenever I see a picture of Bob Dylan I feel like a sixth grader meeting Miley Cyrus. I read about how his biggest pet peeve is being put on a pedestal or examined like an artifact but I'm afraid if I talked to him in person I would burst into wet snotty sobs or start ripping my clothes to shreds like an ape on PCP.

It's taken a lot to get me inspired lately and I was starting to think I was hitting a dry spot in my musical moon. But I sat down the other day and three new songs fell out.  It may have been the Dylan interview or the new piano that I'm aching to get, Yamaha CP300.  But, the juice is back and I'm so excited.

Not only am I looking forward to getting my new stuff recorded and playing some shows-I'm also getting ready to start recording again with my other band, Vijoy Rao & The Removers.  Get ready for fresh tunes! Hurray!

LoVe lOvE LoVE,
