london calling part 2

Hey y'all....i'd like to thank everybody for their, phone calls, prayers, text messages, teddy bears, flowers, cd's, dvd's, strip o gram's ( kidding) whilst i was recovering from surgery. Still moving pretty slow....walking with a walking stick....can't laugh, sneeze or cough yet....and i'm fairly certain they left a pair of scissors in my belly( jk) ...nah...it just feels that way.....
Just got word we will be heading to England for the Greenbelt Festival in August....with most likely a few shows in or around the shows there....hopefully a return to the Borderline....sad cuz the dates for Greenbelt are on the same day as my birthday and my mothers' birthday....her 80th ! i bet i'll be grounded for missin that one....zoikes....
Got the great new video by Brian Fitzpatrick up on the myspace site now and will be on the main website shortly.
Release is slated for August 28th 2007...and will be having record release parties in Chicago and in Philadelphia....look for those dates to be announced within a couple weeks...i am so heartened by the way things are setting up for this record and i'd like to thank everyone here for being a part of it.....I hope its going to turn out to be quite a ride.....God bless......Be kind to each other.....Give love.......

below is an excerpt from the book i just finished.....simple in sentiment but resonated with me.....hope you enjoy it.....

He looked at her and after a while he said, Its not about knowing
where you are...its about thinking you got there without taking
anything with you
you don't start over....every step you take is forever, you cant' make
it go away, none of it....you know what i'm saying?
i know you don't but let me try one more time..
you think when you wake up in the mornin, yesterday don't count, but
yesterday is all that does count. What else is there? Your life is
made out of the days its made out of. Nothin else. You might think
that you could run away and change your name and i don't know what
all. Start over.
And then one morning you wake up and look at the ceiling and guess
who's layin there?
