Hey Tavie, hope things are good with you, I'm just spreadin' the word about my new single "yr room" that I just put up on the page...I know appreciate good art, give it a listen when ya get a chance!
Hey you! I'm still writing prose apart from the music...if you'd like to see what I've been doing with the written word, check out the 'blog' section of my page and read the little piece of a book I'm finishing up called "StreetSigns." I know you read alot and I'd love to know what you think...Peace!
Been a while since I dropped you a line to chat about kith--just curious, how many shows did you make it to this round? I'm sure I'll be crazy jealous when you tell me!
Hello to my long-tenured intellectual elementary buddy! Remember when they used to pull the two of us out of class and have us sit in the older kids English class? And read the Phantom Tollbooth? Didn't like that one...anyway, I'm back on the solo acoustic scene, and I'm heading to the studio in July, but I have some new tracks up for now..."How It Is" and "Promise To You." Check 'em out and let me know what you think! Hope everything is good with you.
Hey Tavie - I think I saw you tonight at the show! I was sitting on the left side a few rows back from the stage and you came over I guess to behind the curtain. I hesitated for a minute and then were you gone and I didn't see you again! Anyway, I LOVED tonight of course and felt so incredibly sad that it was the only performance I'd get to see this weekend.
