I worried about my last entry for about another week. Then something hit me: Who really Cares? Am I being overly cautious when noone else seems to care? Here are the rules of surivival with a touring national act: Dont disrespect. Dont steal. Dont cheat. Dont spill the beans. Protect the circle. At the same time, the essential requirement have been simple: Dont be a meathead! With that in mind, I have once again pulled on the perverbial bootstraps. I was worried and I did not call J. for many months. We spoke yesterday. The tone was civil and caring. They are rolling through my turf next Friday, the 16th of Feb. We are invited to join the Tore up Tour, once more. I am so excited! I could go to sleep and wake up on Friday morning ready to go...Apart of me only lives in this circle of friends and music, Truly lives. If I could express that in musical and poetic terms this would complete my day/life.
