Ok…here is the first blog on my spankin’ new website. Youz guys know I love to talk. Especially about myself …did I say that out loud!!

Once this Cd is released, I will do my best to post daily and give you the good, the bad and the ugly of what it’s like to put music out in a world where every kid with a laptop can overload the system with sounds coming in all different sizes and flavors!!

I’m learning the ”new” business model along with every other “Lifer” in my demographic, so it should be interesting and maybe a little humorous to watch me bump into a few walls as I gain speed.

Once I hit the road jack, I will do my damndest to write every night after the show.  You’ll will get an idea of how over a few gigs I will keep switching, adding and eliminating songs until I hit on just the right combination to take the crowd where I want them to go. (Run on sentence but %$#@ it!)

Think of it as Hunter S. Thompson meets William S. Burroughs meets Lawrence Welk.

Anyway… Fall 2011 has turned out to be quite a blast of excitement here in Byrdland!
First my 24th sober anniversary, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Nomination for Joan Jett and The Blackhearts, yet another Byrd birthday (hey, at this point I’m just glad I made another one). Then of course there’s a new Cd coming out winter 2012.

And last but not least this new site!

…It’s all downhill from here kids.
Hey, I’m kidding. I’m a kidder!

That’s all I’ve got for now so

‘Til the next time we say goodbye…I’ll be thinking of you!
