Mouth, Words, Floor.
After playing three shows in the span of six hours last night and making very little money my room mate Spen says I am truly a professional musician. Professional or not it'd be nice to make a little money someday. The bands last string of shows have been really great. Our shows have been packed for the most part with fun audiences.
Last night Green Mountain Grass debuted a new song called mouthwords. Its a great song written by Jesse and arranged by the band. So in the past week we've added three new originals to our set and I think everyone will love them. So far we've gotten a great response.
We were given a keg from New Belgium and are talking about working with them in the future. So there a lot of drunk beautiful people running around the house right now. Its great!!

I spill a lot...But really I do
There really isn't very much to say about my day today. Hopi managed to pee in the middle of the kitchen without any of the twelve other people here catching her in the act. But other than that Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was a better movie than I anticipated which I'm not saying it was good, but entertaining almost only if you have read and are into the books.
Mainly I wanted to post a link to the Mike Harding Show where you can listen to Punch Brothers live at the Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow. You have to sit through a little talking and two acts: those being Old Blind Dogs and Martin Simpson, before Punch Brothers play. I wont go so far to say that I find either groups bad but by the time the banjo finally starts clucking my heart was racing with excitement. If you are reading this from the future you might have to look at the Mike Harding show archives to find it or else it might no longer be available. I think its worth the time to give it a listen.
So this post lightly expresses my not so fearless opinions but I'm really not in the mood for controversy. On that note, I'm going to go read some news. Gerkin!

Not the best start.
This is my first blog at this domain. Here goes.
Today has not been the best day but I'm going to try not to vent right now. After being incredibly frustrated the last few days I've decided to spend most of my day on the computer. This can sometimes be therapeutic for me. Listing to music on itunes and watching video's on youtube. Its really fantastic, though I could be practicing right now. I find my practice time to be almost a complete waste when I'm feeling like I do today. My mood is gradually changing though with the hope of my girlfriend coming home soon. I've also been watching video's of Stuart Duncan listening to Wes Corbett and listening to John Hartford. And I'm starting to get the feeling that everything is going to be okay.
I just started reading the headlines on Democracy now and I realized that I really haven't been paying much attention to the presidential election. Which I guess isn't unusual due to my pessimistic feelings towards the voting system and government in general. Which thanks to Chomsky is changing (there is hope people, the revolution has already started). But I'm actually interested this time around to keep an eye on what is happening in the debates. I'm about to watch a debate hosted by Democracy now. And maybe later I will practice some. I can sense the future bringing me a Huber head for my banjo which I desperately need. Yay! This is all for now.
