Hey gang...
I'm heading out in the morning for a week's vacation to Florida. As they say at the Super Bowl... I'm going to Disneyworld. Except unlike the superbowl, I have to pay to get in and they won't let me be in the parade... it will still be fun though. I haven't been since I was little and my wife and son have never been.
I'm playing a show Friday night in Lakeland while I'm down there... my friend Adam Mayfield set it all up and I'm really looking forward to it... should be a lot of fun.
I also just added a new booking for June that I am VERY excited about... I'll be playing at the Bluebird Cafe on June 11th. If you're not familiar with the Bluebird, no big deal.... but those of you who are know that the Bluebird is probably the most famous singer-songwriter venue in the whole world. It's really an honor to play there... I never really thought I could get in so I never bothered calling. Well, about 2 months ago, a friend of mine asked for a CD to pass along to a lady who works at the Bluebird... I gave her one and didn't really think anything of it... well, last night, I'm outside walking my dogs and my cell phone rings and it's the Bluebird asking me to come play. Let's just say my dogs weren't the only ones peeing in the yard.
It's not a big deal like it used to be... I mean, I don't think people get discovered there anymore or anything like that, but it's still an honor, and I'm still excited about it... if you're in the Nashville area over the summer, you should plan on coming if you can... I would appreciate the support. I'll only be playing 3 songs that night, but if that goes well, I could potentially be invited back to be a featured artist on one of their writers nights, which would be really cool.
Anyway... gotta go pack! We're leaving at 4:00 am!
