So, I’m currently sitting on the bus, underneath the Sommet Center in Downtown Nashville. Today the MercyMe guys and the David Crowder Band are are playing at a Youth Specialties event. Then later tonight MercyMe guys are playing two songs on at the Grand Ole’ Opry. So what does this all mean for me? That means I am home, but I’m not home. I’m in town so there’s a chance that I will run into people I know, but I don’t get to hang out with my family all that much.
I will get a chance to grab some dinner with Kristin and the boys tonight before heading to Ohio tonight. All in all a pretty low-key day. At least someone bought Ironman for the bus last night, I’ve never seen it.
Alright everyone. I’d like to announce SkorInc’s newest friends on the world-wide interweb. The Katinas. Now, here’s the thing about these guys. First off, they are the ‘real deal’. Honestly they are some of the nicest, most sincere people I have ever met and I couldn’t be more excited to work with them. Second, what excites me about working with them is the fact that they are on top of everything they do. The process from start to finish has been a great experience and I know for a fact they are going to have a great blog, with crazy interactivity.
I’m excited to see the things these guys come up with and I’m excited to get to know them better. Make sure to head over to TheKatinas.com and give them a big, fat welcome. Take a look around and let them know what you think of the site, and be sure to check back because they are going to be updating like crazy.
Remember, we need your help to spread the word so it would be great to mention it if you can. Let as many people know as you can about these guys and the new site. Thanks folks. Hope you like it.
Well, did you save your ten bucks? I hope so. Now, most of you probably have heard of my friend Tyler. He used to play guitar for the band Audio Adrenaline, has toured with Mat Kearney and even played on the Glen Phillips record “Mr Lemons”. Well Tyler’s first full-length, solo record, Darling Maybe Someday, has been out of for a few weeks and is officially on iTunes now.
What does that mean for you? That means you are about to spend ten dollars on something that you will listen to a million times, and also tell your friends about. Here’s what I’d like to do. Are you with me? I’d like for as many people that read this blog to go get Tyler’s record, then let’s all come back here and talk about it. Full review style. All you guitar people, tell us what you think. All you indie music people, what do you think? What’s your favorite song on the record? You know junk like that. Then what I will do is call Tyler and have him come read all the nice things you had to say. Sound like a plan?
So here goes folks. You have your mission today. And it’s not like you won’t come back here and thank me. The record is amazing. One of my favorites. I have been listening to this thing so much that my kids know all the words already. I seriously can’t say enough about this record or Tyler as a person to do then both justice. Just go get it and check it out yourself. You’ll love it. And to start things off here’s one of the songs I typically repeat a few times.
Okay everyone. I have another small project for you this Friday. Are you up for it? Here’s the deal. This time we need to save nine hundred and ninety nine pennies. On Friday we will have a little individual purchasing and musical listening party, and then we will come here and talk about what we just listened to. It’s going to be awesome and you will thank me later, but you need your pennies to make that happen. Have I steered you wrong yet? Is that how you spell “steered”? It looks weird.
So set aside those pennies. Look under the couch. Skip Starbucks for a day. Anything, but it’s time for a little musical discovery…. Friday.
I’m leaving tonight for another quick trip out with Phil. This time we are flying in to Baltimore and driving up to a festival called “Creation East”. Or maybe it’s just called “Creation” and there is one in the west and in the “East” or maybe it’s just called “Creation” and the “East” is implied. Either way I am headed there tonight. It’s in Pennsylvania, which is “East” of here.
Because of where we are flying in and where the festival is Phil and I noticed a little place on the map right in between the two. I have never been to Gettysburg and neither has Phil, so we thought there was no better time than now to see it. I’ll try to make sure to get some cool pictures if I get a chance.
