On the road again!


Wow, it has been way too long since I've done an update! Where do I even start? I had a great summer exploring Michigan and hanging out with Alecia and her family. I did alot of fishing, probably more than a person should spend time doing.. and preparing for the fall tour. We spent 3 insane weeks recording a 5 track album that is just about finished!! The next step is to get them printed and ready to sell. I've been on the road since about Sept. 2nd, and it already feels long! I'm really excited to play our show in my hometown, and see many friends that I haven't seen in more than a year. I'm also excited to go home this Christmas with Alecia! We got our tickets all lined up, and the next step is to wait patiently until the day we fly into Portland.

Tonight is the first night with our full crew. 4 AG guys, 1 tour manager + opening act, and 2 roadies. It's a little tight space wise, but the RV makes it easy. I sat on the bed in the back reading my new fishing book for an hour or so before falling asleep to the gentle vibration of the road and the roar of passing semi-trucks. We had a late start, thanks to some last minute plumbing repairs, but we are finally on our way! This will be the longest stint of our tour so far, and a fun one! We'll be travelling East, hitting several colleges along the coast. Well, the hot tub looked inviting as I came in after lunch... I think it's time for me to go fulfill my duties of this life as a rockstar and relax in the jacuzzi. Bye for now!
