First song of 2009

I'm back in action after a few weeks off. Family, travel and general Holiday madness took me away from writing for a little while. It feels good to be back in the game. I certainly hope that everyone had a great New Years and arrived safe and sound in 2009.

I posted a new song on Songs in the Raw - Myspace called "Slip Up PHD". It's about making mistakes. I have made plenty of them. The phrase "you learn from your mistakes" came to mind. I am not really sure if I have learned from all my mistakes. I'm pretty sure that I have learned from some of them, but I also feel like we make the same mistakes over and over again. Sort of the human condition. However, if I was to learn from my mistakes, then I should be the smartest person in the world! Maybe I'd be a PHD....a slip up PHD!!

I also put a demo'd version of "Quickie Mart Rodeo" up on Songs in the Raw - Myspace for you guys. It came out really cool and I'm pretty happy with it. It also kind of fits the Songs in the Raw theme. We did it in one take and feels like a band vibe.

It's good to be back in the writing world again and I look forward to giving you guys some cool material to chew on!!
