NotsoSuperheroic

Working backwards from tomorrow night…

When I play the Fillmore, though I’m not sure exactly when. The guy who booked me just called me (at 2 in the morning) to say that the lineup had changed. Don’t matter to me. It’s the Fillmore, yo. And it’s gonna be blessed.

Tonight I got a new mix of a new song and it sounds SWEET. I’m sending it out to all the people who’ve supported the Semper Fi project as a thank you. Feels good, AND I’m looking forward to the day when I can spend more than a few hours in the studio producing a song. the whole process is a total blast for me and feels like some kind of Absolute Fulfillment. Definitely what I’m supposed to be doing.

Got connected with a lot of people I haven’t seen in a long time. I went to a community potluck and feasted with fifty friends. It was RAD. Came out to find my car broken into. Fortunately, I’d not YET picked up what is undoubtedly my new favorite thing – a 1950-something Martin acoustic guitar, on indefinite loan from a dear friend. It’s an instrument with an amazing story and I’m honored to be its guardian for a spell. It’s simply exquisite and I can’t wait to learn how to play it properly. I think there’s gonna be a LOT of practicin’ goin on.

I have found a waystation on the great Journey of Homelessness I’ve been on for the last year or so. Actually, in light of things in the southeast and the rest of the world, to call it homeless is really unfair, ’cause I’ve managed to have shelter and food and water that won’t kill me. But I’ve found two rooms in San Francisco for really great rent on a month-to-month situation with a really cool young woman landlord/tennant/housemate. I’m SUPER excited about getting an actual recording studio set up and having more than a shelf of space for it. I’m even going to have room for a couch in a room completely separate from my living space. I’m extremely grateful for being so blessed, that’s for sure.

Anyway, there’s broken glass shattered in my back seat and I think someone went to the bathroom in my car while it was parked in the Tenderloin. I keep getting these rather unpleasant whiffs of… well, I’m not too sure.

Alright,that’s my news for the moment.
