New Blog Post 2016!

Damn it got dusty around here!

Okay, it has been a long time since I've updated this blog or my website. With the upcoming releases, they both will be receiving a new coat of paint and moving up on my priority list. Yes, you read that correctly: releases plural. There will be a lot of new release information, shows and, yes, even a music video. Ooh tantalizing right? Maybe....maybe not. Perhaps you just want to understand what the hell it is that I do. Well, that is the real purpose of this whole thing. It's going to be a lot of different things and I hope you'll check it out. My intention is at least one new blog a week. It will include some video as I work and some for just general entertainment. Plus some music gear geek out and maybe a heads up on music I’m listening to that you might dig. There will also be bass guitar oriented blogs as well. We’ll just see how this whole thing develops.

This is my little music soapbox and Facebook is not really the place for long form posts. Most people want to quickly catch up, hit like, or make a quick comment and move on with their lives. I've also noticed that a picture will receive more attention than a link to a video. That video is a commitment of time that people weren't prepared to give you when all they want to do is quickly open Facebook. Likewise, Twitter isn't really a place to discuss anything at length. I find 140 characters is somewhat constricting. Let's face it, we are being conditioned to have the attention span of goldfish, and that's being generous. 

Enjoy this NEW self portrait

This blog is a way for me to use the long form art of writing. I think I can do a better job of keeping you up to date and babble a little bit. I'll try to keep it tight and concise, but I'm not very good at composing short songs either.

Anyway, I'm glad you stopped by and for those who didn't, you suck. (You'll have to get use to my dry sense of humor.) I hope I can put that across in my writing. My hope is to share my thoughts a little bit. This will not be the only post this week...it will be a double header week! I will be posting links on the social media sites mentioned above to let you know when I have dropped one of my pearls of wisdom on you. Until next time...

Peace & Love, J
