rewind, unwind
It flew by so fast, and I am back near the ocean.
My only regret is not being able to spend more time with my family... it was really great to talk and catch up with my many aunts and uncles, to see my Grandma, kick it with my brothers, even see Kate's family briefly.
I always feel this intense self examinatory period after being with family, I suppose its because I incessantly talked about what I am doing with my time, and even I have to listen and think about what exactly I am up to.
One thing that I realize is that I am ready to be done with the retreat like repose and take the music career more seriously. Even though I'm bubbling over with material, I'd like to focus on my live shows, get my gear that I need and work on the overall presentation. I listened to BLUE STAR again on the way home from Ukiah, along with Sing The Sorrow, (AFI),, and I decided that it needs more promotion, even though I am WAY over it artistically. The sound engineering by Keith Feigin is just, I mean, I listen to a lot of stuff and with this album he did such a crystalline job. It really is a bit of a triumph for me, and I hope for him too.
I have had revelations that the thing I really miss most about Portland, besides my friends in general, is the band. Not just a band, but THE band. And other than that I don't really miss much.
The sun is starting to peek out. I need to run some errands and then I think I might start a hot fire and record some music.
