Back at it!

I'm in Stamford Connecticut, and boy am I glad to be on the ground.  I normally don't mind flying, but there was a bit of rough air coming into the Westchester County Airport.  The next month(ish) I'll be on the road, first with a legendary, and I really mean legendary soul/funk/r&b/disco/insane group that puts on a fantastic show, and then immediately following that short run, I'll be headed to the west coast for two weeks of shows with a more contemporary band that's playing some arenas in the U.S. before heading abroad.  I'm only with them for the two weeks in the states, unfortunately.
Pictures of things like PA systems and backpacks will surely pop up soon.

One week left!

Although the tour started a bit rocky for me due to some personal issues that arose immediately prior to the onset, I've had a great time. But... I'm ready for this one to end.  I got a call yesterday from the office letting me know about two shorter gigs this fall, that will keep me busy from the 3rd week of September through about the second week of October, so I'll have a few weeks off once I get back to the family's place in Ohio this Thursday.

I'm headed to Chicago this weekend to see my cousin Sarah get married.  I'm glad that I can make it, because I've missed two other cousins' weddings since I've been touring, and it'll be a good chance to catch up with family that I haven't seen in a few years.  I also like wearing ties.
