Its a typical rainy FL afternoon.

Greg and I are getting ready to head out to Orlando. Tonight we play for friends,among friends. Ed, who is a very special fan of ours, is not only that but a great friend. He’s invited us into his home, in his back yard, to partake in a pool party and later play some tunes for him and his company. It will be nice to have a low key gig. Those are great for exploring old songs and experimenting with new ones. Thats where inspiration is usually born for me. Chances are if you’re not paying attention, Im creating a new song. If you are paying attention, Im being good haha :]

Anyway,
the show at Fly Bar was great last night. Again, experimentation at its greatest. We played without our bass player ( miss you Stevem) so we had two guitars and drums, but it was fun and jazzy. Good company and good atmosphere. I love feeling free at shows. Its unfortunately in my nature to do the exact opposite of what is expected of me. I think my attitude has always been a struggle between rebellion and conformity.
We still did good and had a blast.

On our way out the door now, gotta get to O town.
You guys have a good saturday, go see a show, enjoy the art and passion that goes into a songwriter creating something for the pleasure of your ears-we all do it for you, and can’t do it without you.

Adios,

Tonight is a good night. 

I have developed a real positive feeling over the last couple of days. I see my obstacles, I acknowledge them, and I welcome them. I am aware of my path I’m really ready to walk it. 

In the real world, and in dreams, our lives are the same: there is hope, there is conflict and there is resolution. No matter how tragic or spectacular, in the end, the outcome is always the best situation for the greater good. It all makes sense. I think that whatever my heartships, whatever my trouble and struggles may be, in the end, the outcome will be what needed to happen. 

I am sitting tonight in good company, in good atmosphere, missing the road, missing my band and missing the fans, but this is a much needed break and deliberation period. I think I’m ready finally to take the load on without buckling under the stress and pressure. 

I’m back to writing songs and being able to write without expectations, but just for the pure purpose for therapy and getting things off my chest and onto the paper, like heart web strings, making a home. I’m back!

I’m trying my hardest to put aside the paranoia and scare tactics that have been nailed into my head about the music business and taking chances. You know what I say? I am the exception. I don’t are (respectfully) what the veterans and masterminds of the music industry think about the music industry. I am a songwriter and a musician and I like millions out there believe in what I’m doing and will continue on with what I’m doing at all cost, because it’s my duty to, because it’s the only thing I know how to do, and because there are millions of people who need me.

So,I love you fans, I love you music, I love you music industry experts, I love you famous music icons and I love you haters. I am one girl against the world and I am all packed up and ready to come and change your mind.
