…And I’m sure there are more productive things to do to count down the time. I have all this nervous energy pent up and it’s not to say that I’m nervous about recording or how the songs have come together or about the band’s performances, it’s just the uncertainty of what’s to come. I’m happy [...]

I work hard. Duh. And I seem to be constantly reminded of it. This is not meant to be an egotistical kind of thing but I’m more and more becoming known as “the guy who works really hard in the Boston music scene.”
The catalyst for this entry was when I was talking to Brian Packer [...]

I woke up with a serious ‘case of the mondays’ today. My alarm went off at 9 but I snoozed until 10. It was practically impossible for me to get up. It is an unusual situation for me because I don’t often have Mondays. I’m usually working in at least some regard everyday but I [...]

…My food coma that is.
Also, my blog writing coma. It is the Saturday after Thanksgiving and I am still at my parents’ house in Lowell. I will be going back to Boston in a short while but for now I’m still digesting my Thanksgiving meal. It was several days of eating and drinking too much [...]

Today I am substitute guitar teaching for my friend (and bassist) Andy at The Music Box in Wrentham. I have wanted this gig for a while because I figured that teaching guitar would be a good way to make some money and keep my chops up, but this is the first opportunity for me to [...]

I made my first visit to Burlington, VT in September and concluded that I liked Portland, ME better, which in retrospect is an unfair assessment.

Out of all the colleges I’ve played at, I’ve played Bentley the second most behind Northeastern, my alma mater. Also, out of all the colleges that I’ve played at, I’ve profited the most from performing at Bentley (though I won’t name specific figures). However, Bentley has always been a tough place to play at. One [...]

So many of my entries lately have been me thinking about big picture things: purpose, whether or not pursuing music is worth it, what music means to me…and I can understand it coming off as less than positive. This entry is all about GOOD VIBES. This has been a fantastic year for me (personally as [...]

Much of this blog is me being frantic, complaining, and worrying about whether or not I should be doing music and if I’m any good and is it worth it? So yea, that’s what this is about. Ha.
I watched a half-hour long DVD seminar tonight entitled “3 Key Questions” by a Reverend from [...]

“You have a really pretty voice.” ~ Girl From Plymouth State
I think I may have said in the last post (which I wrote earlier but JUST posted) that a good show at PSU could be a great rebound from the funk that I was in the last couple of days and it worked. It was [...]
