Cinco de Mayo

Well I have been gone for five days with my band Letterbox to do shows. It was an incredible rocking good time every night. Over the course of the four nights we probably played to over 1500 people. We did about four hours each night.

I am beat though. My hands are sore. My voice is tired, though still there. And my legs are just mush (I get possessed behind my rig and dance all night...especially during my solos).

But it was a great time. I should have some pics and maybe video to share before long.

Glad to hear you had a good time, but on the other hand, I've got a four gig weekend coming up in early June, and I can't help but wonder how I'm gonna hold up.
I'm anxious to see some photos.

Stephen,

If it is like us, nights 1-3 are an absolute blast...but you feel like you are earning your money on night 4. It is just a hard night.

We just passed a resolution never to do more than three in a row!

But don't worry :lol: you'll do fine!!! :lol: :lol: :roll:

No really. You will.

But I am taking a few days off from music (playing, not listening). I have another two nighter coming up in a few.

Thanks Diego, will do! Yea I am looking forward to the two nighter. I think it will feel short. Should be loads of fun though.

And I have started writing a new track...although I have one in the pocket for either June or July that I have hit Stephen up for a little work on. I am not sure when I will do it but it should be great.
