re: six months, 40,000 km, 100 gigs and still not there yet!!!



hello friends, lovers, strangers, family, foe and the rest....

i love you all, and am so thankful and grateful for your support!

love perhaps is a strong word, but you get the drift.

i've been outta action a few weeks, had a pretty serious and intense concussion that had me in a fog for about two weeks straight, couldn't look at a computer screen for more than ten minutes, and it felt like my head was underwater the whole time. plus, i was sleeping 15 or more hours a day for the first five days.

it uh, made me re-evaluate things in my life. and i'm thankful to be alive, and not totally screwed, coz for a while there, i got scared it wasn't going to go away. so, i'm trying to slow down is what i'm saying, the past year, i've been living a hard, fast paced life, lots of traveling, lots of gigs, lots of places and faces and plenty of good times. i've done some stupido things, but i don't regret any of it. i believe mistakes are how we learn. hopefully, i'll start to learn from them! ha ha!

anyway, life is strange, and strange things happen, some times really cool things happen, if you just go with the flow, and don't fight it. for example, more gigs are lining up, filmed a beautiful mansion, and i met a man worth a hundred million dollars (or so i was told), i toured more again this week, and i've decided i'm going to change things a bit, and will start posting new songs or riffs, or video jams online as much as possible along with new art. i really feel the need to bring music back into my life fully because i want to play gigs more and more and more.

in the meantime, i made this brief video that almost, kinda, sorta but not quite captures the essence of my life the past six months, along with friends and playas that i met along the way. they are all photographs, and it sorta captures how it feels. my friend shea says it can be exhausting hanging out and touring with me. what can i say?

until next time lovers,

cb




also, don't read too much into this, it's really just a cool song i liked, and i just added the images sequentially, according to when they were taken. chill out alright?

re: catacombs

i want to go to paris and explore the catacombs beneath it.


i once read that they discovered a theatre that people had been using for as long as fifty years before it was found, and there are many rumours about vampires, cults and other macabre things going on beneath the city of paris.

either way, it sounds pretty interesting to go explore.....
