bit the big apple

how do?? back from new york...had a really great time....stayed at the chelsea hotel...which was a complete dump but totally loved it and felt so at home there...maybe i'd been there in a past life....kidding.....thinking of dylan thomas, thomas wolfe...bob dylan and of course where sid killed nancy.....in fact that rug in my room either had wine stains or blood stains on it....would need Dr. Henry Lee to know which it was....
the first gig at the bitter end was ok....just haven't been feelin myself up there lately...up there being on stage.....but the living room gig was a blast....even Troy said to me after the gig, " welcome back" and it did feel like i'd returned to a better form...maybe i just needed to shake the dust or rust....anyway....got two more shows coming up...one with my old pal, glen phillips from toad the wet sprocket and one at durty nellies....so i'm looking forward to that....still in this inbetween area of how much new stuff i want to play this far out before the record comes out....so i'm a little uncertain of what to do for that...My brothers Brian Koppelman and David Levien are getting ready to make the next " Oceans" movie..." OCeans 13"....knowing them...i'm sure it'll be great....they are making a whole casino from scratch out in hollywood for the filming...and they got Al Pacino in this one...sweet....Bobby Macintyre is gonna be in town this week with the Twilight Singers...so i'm looking forward to seeing him...thanks to everybody in new york for coming out...not gonna put a new song up on the myspace this week...but may debut a new new song...next monday....so be sure to tune it.....
God bless you all,
