Yay! Friday!

I had a blast last night, I'd like to thank Sahffi & Michael Harris of Bossalingo for helping me out last night. I was the opening act for the St. Jude Benefit Concert, I must say, I was a little intimidated. All the other acts were mostly dressed in black shirts, with tattooed arms, and either super short or super long hair. Everybody assembling their drum kits, and checking their distortion pedals & what not. Then I show up, a dressed up desert boy with a chocolate acoustic guitar!. I'm telling you, it was a MOVIE scene hahahaha :D.

Then our good friend & fan Donna showed up, & that made me feel a little comfortable, then Brooks Long showed up, & our good friend & awesome guitarist Santendrix came out to support as well. So I said to my self..I should rock just for them. you know?

I think the soundman (who I think was a member of the headlining band All Thee Above) was not comfortable with acoustic instrument, they are after all a loud distorted rock band. But we made due, adjusted the sound as we went along, & finished our set in peace.

What REALLY surprised me was the response, while on stage I saw all these hardcore rockers bopping their heads to my tunes, and being very attentive. Wow! that was AWESOME. Then after the show I got some very cool complements, one rocker came up to me & told me that "Billie Jean" was the song that won him over, another rocker came & shook my hand & told me that it took balls for me to come play at such a distortion heavy event, & that he really liked "Tuesday Lady".

I was totally blown away, I LOVE Baltimore musicians, all these awesome super hard rockers are Baltimore artists, & they all took the time to come complement me on my work & give me words of encouragement. I felt really blessed.
Such an awesome evening, this will be one hell of a chapter when I write my memoirs as an Eastern rocker in the West :D..I might call this chapter "The desert boy with the camel tattoo". Catchy, right?
Thanks to everyone for sending me your good vibes, you all rock :)
