I practiced with My Barbarian tonight for our upcoming Saturday performance for the Mayor of LA (and his special guests). It was the first time in over 4 months that I played music, like with other people... It was actually fun... I had fun... Just because I'm still traumatized by last Fall's tour and didn't want to play live with my own band (I was channeling Brian Wilson for a sec there, yeah right, I'm so full of it...) doesn't mean I have given up on music. No, it's really the opposite. Music is the most inspirational thing for me right now. I am in love with music. It's the only thing that makes me feel these days (not to sound overly dramatic). I'm not done with music; it'll always be with me...
