I don't have much time to write because I am sizzling, smoking, burning at both ends and I want to do something creative/productive before the same old blah sets back in. You gotta take what you can get.

I thought I was going to start blogging exclusively on my band's myspace, but it turns out that this space still has a use. Especially after reading Ryan Adams's new blog. It's inspiring. Maybe I'll start making little videos, although I don't know who would want to watch them. (Besides my mom - hi Mom, I know you're reading! Isn't the internet great?) Not that it matters who watches them, really.

I am listening to lots of new stuff, or at least receptive to hearing new things. For a while I wasn't having any of it. I went back to The Replacements and found some great things. Same with, uh, Wham!

...yeah.

It's a little pointless to write a blog in such a guarded manner. But what can I say, that's what I do. I'm not going to divulge any deep, dark secrets just to turn a few heads. Even if that kind of stuff is a heck of a good read.

I leave you with some excellent first-wave ska. Skank your hearts out.
