VZD's has a "Honky Tonk" night on Tuesdays and I was asked to play. Originally Jordan was going to come play fiddle, but stuff came up. Chad showed up and played bass and Misty sang a couple too. Been meaning to jam with Chad for a while. It was a lot of fun. Can't wait to work with him again.

Yesterday was Lowdown Entertainment's Annual Halloweenie Mini Film Fest. There wwere two screenings. The first in the afternoon at Henry Hudson's, which I was able to attend, the second in the evening at Downtown Sound. They screened my video for "Fear The Dead" along with a handcul of other short films and trailers keeping in the spirit of Halloween. Unfortunately there was a glitch which had the sound delayed by about twenty seconds. Matt went back to the house to work on the screener, so hopefully they got that fixed before the second showing. Still was a fun event that a lot of people came out for. Can't wait for next years!

Joined our friends Jason and The Punknecks again while they were touring out. Had a blast. Turn-out wasn't bad considering we were up against a few bigger shows that night. A lot of good tunes. The Righs, us, The Punknecks and JV's Fillin Station all played.

Latest installment of The Hellbilly Hoedown, my monthly gig at The Red Brick Bar. Jimmy Grubb was scheduled to be my guest, but do to unforeseen circumstances he could not play tonight. Shilo Brown took the stage instead. I've known Shilo a number of years now and it was a pleasure to share stage with him again.

Last night's Universe City Open Mic I also happened to be the host of the show. Stephen Tyler took the night off to go out and celebrate his birthday. The switch in days I think cut the amount of musicians that showed up to play, but it gave everyone a longer set. Everyone we had show up were quality musicians and songwriters. It was very cool. We had Canon Simmons, Kerry Wayne, Bryan Coke, Isaiah Harrell and Mike Black. Each played around fifteen to twenty minutes and then I closed off the night with a short solo set and a few of them came up on stage with me. Ended up being a very cool night.

Last night we held Universe City's Open Mic at The Deli. The Prairie Fire were the featured act opening the night off with a full set. This was our first time here as a band since our very first gig a few years ago. Normally this show is the first Wednesday of every month, but because of scheduling conflicts with a touring act it got pushed forward a day to the first Tuesday. Because of this Isaiah wasn't able to come play drums. We had a cat named James Paterson fill in, and he did very well. Fit right in with the rest of us.
