Interesting experience! Makes me recall the times when my business and its problems has amputated my interest in music (and art in general). Also had a friend who helped me learn to ride a "music bicycle" again. Still riding...

Ah lady. Makes me miss you much!! and eddie too!
I'm wishing you your very own sherpa to join you on your current waiting journey (and probably afterwards when a sherpa would really be handy, no?)

Now I want everyone I know to do a radio piece - it's like hanging out while I do the dishes!

Barry thinks he is in character with his movies, he says he is just playing with the minds... I should hope so otherwise he does not have a good excuse . Is that is a good excuse?
Christa Couture
Christa Couture
yes it was a bit of "Bad Santa" coming through! the story sure spread like wild fire across Canada - I guess he received some "back lash" at his Massey Hall gig! http://perezhilton.com/2009-04-10-billy-bob-backlash

i love performing solo, i do. it doesn’t matter what mistakes i make, and what set lists i don’t… BUT, it can also get so lonely! SO, i dreamed a little something up so that i would get to do my thing, have others play with me, AND also get to sit back and listen to music i love...
Christa Couture
technically there are a few days left in summer, but doesn’t it feel like it’s already ended? sigh. maybe i’m just feeling preemptively nostalgic… i had a great summer! the new album hit the top 10 on CBC Radio 3 (thanks CBC...
