Well I guess first off, congratulations would be in order for the
Steelers Nation. They are now the Yankees of Professional Football...as
in they have more World Championships than any other franchise. I
didn't really have a favourite going into it, I rooted for Arizona
because they were the underdogs and everyone said it would be a
blowout. You gotta admit though, they went out and put up one hell of a
fight. They did NOT lay down. Pittsburgh had to earn that Lombardi
trophy. It was probably the best Super Bowl I've seen, right up there
with the Giants/Patriots game.
Well
things are actually panning out and falling into place to secure studio
time...it hasn't worked out the way I thought it would, but its
actually working itself out! God is truly great & mysterious (in
his ways). I'm hoping to actually start tracking within the next month,
instruments and such. I'm really gonna try and discipline myself and
put forth my best effort for this solo thing. There is still a
possibility that I'll be joining a band later this year...but I don't
know when that will be or how that's going to happen. But I feel that
if it happens I could really contribute to what they're doing, and I
would still have the freedom and liberty to work on solo material on
the side. I'm planning on doing 7 songs. Most of which I have planned
out, but it needs to be finalized. I'll also be putting feelers out for
favors to help throw together a press kit...Also I have a friend who's
sketching a design that I'll probably end up using for merchandise and
the cover of the E.P.
R.I.P. Billy Powell. The pianist for the
Southern Rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd was found dead in his sleep in his
Jacksonville, FL home. He was only 56 years old. IMO, he was one of the
great, under-rated rock pianists. Kind of like Nicky Hopkins, everyone
has heard 'em play...but people generally don't know who they are.
