Having a fight with my body trying to make it through this work day til I get home. I took yesterday off for not feeling well and I feel slightly worse today. I didn't get much sleep again last night (what a shocker). It's my left leg, my RLS, and medicine not wanting to kick in quickly. Or at all.

If anything, I appreciate the fact that he has openly discussed his mental health issues as a result of their meteoric rise to fame after the first album and his stressful time before the recording of the second album. That industry can and has swallowed artists whole and I feel as though that band has stood the test of time, is still relevant today and that he seems to be one of the more grounded and real people in the music business, but what do I know?
Anyway, all good and again, agree to disagree.  |
AMEN to everything you said. Especially if you were on Geffen Records. Or it's subsidiaries. DGC was a little better about it's artists, but they still weren't perfect. As much success as the Counting Crows had, they could've been bigger. Their label, DGC, never released a commercial single from their first two albums in the U.S. They were all promo copies. So, the songs that were big on the radio, were just that. Sales for the first two albums were very good. But they could've been bigger. But it is what it is. Geffen/DGC were notorious for this.
Funny story about Cracker. My oldest sister's step kids all went to Georgia. And they all had David Lowery as their teacher. It's hard to believe he is a professor at a college. But what's even more mind blowing is that he is a professor at the birthplace of American College Rock and Alternative. Where the grandfathers of the genre got started. What a hotbed of music and to think David's there.

No one says that. Not even the kids.

I would love to get my hands on the Susanna Hoffs Signature Rickenbacker, but it's rather pricey. So is the Brad House Basshouser Fatfish 32 bass that I want. The later is more attainable though.

I'm debating on making the 2hr trip up north to my sister's grave after dropping the kiddo off at school later today, I'll probably just wait until my next day off though.

Your kid's still in school? I thought school was over about two weeks ago.

I try to split it up with a few park days followed by a cruise to relax. |
You forgot Universal. If you're going to Orlando, you've got to hit up Universal. Now that makes it seven parks. To Do it right nowadays you would need two weeks of vacation time. It's why me and my oldest sister are splitting up our Disney/Universal trips. It's also another reason why I prefer Disneyland.

Not everyone is as lucky as you to turn HARD tricks into GOOD money.
