A Funny/Sad Thing Happened On The Way To The Circus

2008-06-17T14:21:00.002-04:00

As Warren Zevon said, "Life'll Kill Ya".
The train has come off the tracks and,since nobody reads this thing except my soon to be x-partner's lawyer anyway,it's only sporting to report the bad news.
The bottom line: I've made and now have sadly lost some one time good friends and I'll miss them for years to come.
It truly was a great experience making this record, coming to Raleigh, seeing another world and learning another way to live and I will never regret having met these folks or having gone through the experience.
"Trailer Park Angel" was to have been released today nationally...not gonna happen. Doublenaught Records has had a change of heart and the record and I are currently homeless again.
But life is funny and you never know what will be coming 'round the mountain when she comes. I'm happy to send it to anyone who'd like to listen to it-just send a message with a mailing address--it truly is a special record and somehow,some way,folks will one day hear it(you can hear free excerpts and get free downloads at www.trailerparkangel.com)
Stay tuned you little pimply faced, lost web-surfer you...and be very careful what you wish for.
