I'm So Excited


I'm about to lose control and I think I like it

That Pointer Sisters song was such a huge hit when I was growing up. I think it was on the soundtrack to Beverly Hills Cop, the same soundtrack that featured "Axel F" by Harold Faltermeyer, or whatever his name was. ("Axel" and "Faltermeyer" are not within my spellcheck capabilities - although, thankfully, "capabilities" is!) I never did learn that whole riff on the keyboard. Maybe one of these days.....

Today was a pretty good day. I've been asked to help present a guitar to Steve Jobs at Apple headquarters in about two weeks. I can't go into too much detail, but "cool" doesn't begin to describe it. Hopefully things will work out with that. Steve Jobs is a God to me. Seriously.

Better than that, I got a preview of the tracks my buddy Barry did for my song, "Dear Old Friend". OH. MY. GOD. His stuff is just stupid good. I can't wait to get the tracks in the mail and mix it properly. It's the last song I have to mix for the album. The rest has been mastered and is all ready to go. I turned in the artwork earlier this week, proofed it on Friday.

I can tell you now, hating to toot the old horn here but, this shit is goooood. The extra "O"'s are there because of all the help I've gotten on this little project. Richard Rowland, Rick Taylor, the stupid-good vocals from Arron Marshall, my best buddy, Matthew Lerner, and of course, Barry Lawson, have made this such a much better entity...it's just stupid. I can not wait to unleash this shit. I'm so proud of the accomplishment I've made with this little album project.

Feel The Love. Indeed.

Stay tuned for more love!
