Ready For December

Hey All.
Hope that you truly enjoyed your Thanksgiving. I know I did. Spent it with family and the dogs. Sublime.

As I get older, I realize I like Christmas season more and more. And I don't care how early it comes. It's true that the spirit should be with us all year. Even if the carols aren't. Actually the carols are one of my favorite aspects of celebrating, even in November. It's the novelty songs that grind a little. Sunday, we'll be going to get our tree. At least we waited til December for that, you say. I had a great time at Disneyland this week with my dears Patty and Chervet. The place was decked to the halls. And it was actually revitalizing. I'll get a pic or two up in a longer edit of this blog soon.

I've been pressing forward with booking my tour of the UK. So far several shows have been slated including stops in London, of course, Barnsley and Manchester. With more to come. I'll announce venues and more details when the time is right.

The CDs are in production. Hit a snag with the artwork for the posters however. But CDs are on track for December 18 as promised. On MySpace, I've reached 3000 friends. Which is nice to have that many people visit my page. Many of them/you have already expressed eagerness to see me on tour! Plus, "A Talent For Loving" surpassed 8000 plays on the MySpace jukebox and "Fall Out" will breach 2000 later today, I 'spect.

I had a chance to see two musical movies this week. Disney's Disney spoof "Enchanted," which was snarky and sweet. I certainly laughed more than the kids in the audience. We also saw the Dylan biopic "
I'm Not There." Wild, man. Cate Blanchett and Christian Bale's performances as Dylanesque characters were stunning. The whole thing is a bit of a riddle, but worth the 2+ hours of visual references to Bob's lyrics, stylistic cinematic turns (Cate Blanchett's character Jude is basically Dylan in Fellini's "8 1/2." What a concept!) and excellent performances all around.

Gotta jet. But keep the faith!
I'm thankful for all of you. Especially if you're reading this!

Peace & Disco Beats
