Wishing Well (Kiss & Tell)
“Well, I moved into a new apartment, mixed a new record, shot the music video, played a show, and kissed a girl. So yeah, I’d say it was a pretty good weekend.” That’s me on the elevator this morning answering a colleague’s inquiry. And ok, ok, truth be told, the girl I kissed was humoring…

If you happen to be some rabid, ‘Fatal Attraction’ type fan of my music, tonight would be a good night to pick through my trash. Say you wanted a free copy (or twenty) of 1996’s ‘Out of Your Head’? They’re out there for the takin’… I kind of marvelled when I reached the point in…
Read MoreThe Rest Of My Life
I have found just one thing in my life that can make me smile anytime, hands-down, no matter what: Ethan. Rocknroll, however, is currently running a close second. Last night was another one of those Great Moments in Rocknroll History. Chris tackled ‘Long Shot,’ which he nailed. It so rocks. Then he dropped an arpegiated…

T-minus 48 hours until The Big Move, and nothing’s packed. Looks like Thursday’s gonna’ be all about loading my life into cardboard boxes. As I walked through my apartment this morning, I made mental notes, ‘That goes, that doesn’t. That goes, that doesn’t.’ I thought it interesting that none of my Elvis ephemera — save…
Read MoreThese Days
There are two sounds outside my window: traffic and rain. Accordingly, I’m not feeling very optimistic about the remainder of this Tuesday, and I’m only four hours in. I’ve never been a fan of Tuesday. I’ve always found it the least remarkable of days. It doesn’t have the newness or blueness of Monday. It’s not…

I have lived in this apartment for nearly ten years, longer than any single residency prior. I’m moving in four days of my own volition. I have yet to pack my first box. I was born in Iowa City, Iowa… My family moved three weeks later. We lived in Waldorf, Maryland, until I was four.…
Read MorePleased To Meet Me
I woke up, launched ProTools, and began recording. Then I took a cab to Control One Studios and worked on my new record, ‘Love And Other Indoor Games.’ When I got home, yup, you guessed it, I recorded some more. What is wrong with me? (That’s rhetorical. Spare me your emails.) Tony and I re-recorded…
Read MorePlease Kill Me
Rare is the approaching subway that doesn’t make me wonder, just for a second, what would feel like to be run over? It’s not that I have a death wish. Not at all. It’s just that there’s a rogue crazy that pushes the random straphanger onto the rails once and a while. So I think…
Read MorePlease Sing Along
In a massive excavation of all of my previous recordings, I found gobs of goodies for the Friends of BWD, LLC. And I found more. A whole lot more. It might seem a little shameless, my recent pluggs for my new CD, my (as Ted calls it) “Ginsue Knife Special” approach to fundraising (see below,…
