About Jason Dirkes *myspace.com/jasondirkes* PLEASE ADD
It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it. When I was 11 years old I found an old guitar chord book in my grandmother's basement, lacking the money for a guitar I made a make-shift fret board out of the back of a Corn Flakes box, and taught myself how to play. So 16 years, and many songs later I finally have decided to overcome stage fright, and my fear of singing.
I am so grateful for everyone who has helped me along the way with my music. So, special thanks to my mom Cynthia Dirkes, Steven Nagel, Todd Decker, Andy Nelson, Tim Bartels, and anyone who has expressed there love of music to me. I honestly don't think that I would be here with out you, after all I have been through I'm so inspired to move on.

Yes Jason, you need to get back to me still about that cover because if you are going to use it and need any changes to it I should start working on it. I'm completly willing to try some new ideas too so...let me know. Have fun with your recording I hope it goes well for you and I can't wait to hear it. If you want my help with anything else, female vocals, guitar riffs, floutery, you know..Just give me a call>
Hey Jason, Great profile pic! Is that your car? I know that's your guitar. Just wanted to give you props for your songwriting. Love your songs. Hope you're doing well. Cheers, Jeff White www. jeffwhitemusic. com
hey man, sorry i haven't gotten those pedals out in the mail yet. they'll come though. i got em boxed and ready to go, as soon as i get some cash they'll be at your door.
"and i just don't think you'd understand...." when i think of that song, i remember the sunrising and a bass guitar in my hands laying a lil' bass down on your 4track. that was a pretty heavy one that night. i'm still not sure how i survived at work that next morning(oh yeah, it was a music store and no one cared). and damn you rally raced the hell out of ur vdub taking me to work, the birchwood roads can really turn some stomachs especially when your driving...oh man oh man.
Get to work you only have one week.
