Easter

a day of ressurection...always seems like good friday in chicago is miserable and easter is beautiful....considering what those days represent,..its kinda weird. Although i know that it was beautiful in LA on friday..so that blows my whole mystical take on it.

anyway....had fun at the barn show the other night...thanks to everybody for coming out...i do appreciate it...tried out a bunch of new songs...misguided companion, whole lot better, molly mockingbird, lamb and the lion, antique store, i think that was it....
got that april 9th gig and then i think i'm outta here for a while...late june or july is my guess...
still trying to put to bed, the making of this next record....these things always seem to take longer than it should...always the case i guess when money is involved...God, do i hate the endless discussions about money....i know its necessary, but just so unpleasant.
How about the Illinois game against Arizona...perhaps one of the best games i've ever scene..certianly the best comeback....jordan's final game as a bull may be the only game i rank higher.
Not much else to report...should be some new developments soon...but its the hurry up and wait part of this biz that i find myself in presently.
Hope you all had a good easter and that it shed some light on some of the beauty in your life you may have overlooked....
God bless you all,
mm
