Cry ‘Til You Laugh

25, Oct 2011

In what seems to my sore fingers an impossible feat, Terri Hendrix has written a book, Cry ‘Til You Laugh – The Part That Ain’t Art. How she found time whilst maintaining an awesome music career I don’t know, but she did it. She performed and signed copies at the Texas Book Festival this weekend…I […]

Mary Chapin Carpenter

24, Oct 2011

How many times have I waxed poetic about this songwriter on this blog? Too many to count, but not enough. I have seen Mary Chapin in concert exactly 10 times now and last night was the first show I’ve seen her play in a town I actually reside in. Previous to her show last night […]

Elizabeth and I stumbled on a weird piece of tourism on the way home from Houston this weekend.

8, Oct 2011

Doesn’t that title sound romantic and adventurous and all those things? I get asked that a lot – “What is life on the road like?” Truth be told it’s both adventurous and romantic, but I’ll pony up here to the other side of that life for this post. No, I’m not going to complain or […]
