Tonight At Everybody’s
I Hope It Rains All Summer
Some folks have been complaining that it’s been raining too much over the past few days in the Pacific Northwest, but I personally love it. “If the rain falls, they run and hide their heads…”

Vantacat
The Orange Cat adopted a stray kitten. Although his fur absorbs most light, I hope you’re able to see him in this pic. His name is Caesar. All hail Caesar!

Happy Birthday USA!!!
Things have become pretty bad in the USA the past couple of years, but the USA is a strong nation, these days won’t last and citizens who believe in the US Constitution and other great American ideals will prevail. Try not to lose any fingers lighting fireworks in the meantime!

DJamming
I had some friends over (Jake is in the photo on electric guitar) for a jam and listen to some vinyl, just trying to fill my life with as much music as possible. Super soul-satisfying.

Happy Canada Day!
I went record shopping today, but couldn’t find a single Canadian artist, so I came back home and put in a Neil Young classic collection. I hope your Canada Day also had some Canadian artists in your ears, perhaps some Saint John And The Revelations: https://ift.tt/2NrxKrW

Switching Gears This Weekend
Oddly, I don’t have any shows this weekend, but I have plenty of other things to work on, such as album art and liner notes etc. Happy Friday, I hope your weekend is good!

Final Final Mix
I got the final mix for our EP and I’ve been dancing around to it all morning. Our mixing engineer, Tim Palmer, is a genius. We’ll have a series of singles and an EP released later this year.

Solstice Sunday
I had a wonderful time singing with folks in Gorst WA yesterday afternoon. From the stage I could sometimes watch eagles flying over, gorgeous.

Our computer overheated, this music is clearly “fire”. Now we’re trying to figure out what melted, wish us luck!

Happy Birthday, Paul!

Digging
I really needed some vinyl today, so I went digging through some bins. I found a couple of treasures; I’m going to compare them to their streaming counterparts and see which sounds better. I’ll report back soon.

Rooftop Stroll
The Orange Cat likes to get up on the roof and hunt bats. She doesn’t believe me that an eagle is going get her up there, but at least she’ll come down when I call her.

Don’t Write Them Down
I’m up early, writing. I remember when I was a kid watching Beatles documentaries and how they would say they didn’t write their songs down because if they couldn’t remember them, then how would the listeners? I just figured that’s the way it’s done, and I also don’t write my tunes down. Except one copy gets sent to the copyright office, of course.

Clive Davis
As some of you know, I love music biographies, and usually I read the stories of musicians, songwriters, producers, et al, but today I switched gears and started the autobiography of Clive Davis, the legendary music business executive. I’ll be done with this in a day or two, do you have any music biography suggestions for me?
