Where to start, eh? To those of you who continue to keep in touch via here and Myspace (
http://www.myspace.com/aneverywheresnowhere ) I owe a great bit of gratitude. You are amazing and extraordinary. Life's been busy, with the addition of our newest daughter to our family, and my spiritual travels around the world; what a ride is all I have to say.
I've been working on putting into words my ayahuasca experience (many MANY thanks to Blue Morpho Tours and Hamilton for an amazing experience). Much was shown, much was revealed, and much is still being digested. As we all know, there is much more to our existence than the materialistic world that we've come to think of as holistic to our identity. And for those that feel comfortable and are at peace by living their lives as if this is it, I say hell yeah. But for me that has always been and will always continue to be selling myself short. In many ways I understand our existence on this materialistic plane to be a test of sorts, a preparation for the bigger event we live each day for, which is the next big thing. There's a huge amount of change in the air, and while I foresee much more pain and suffering for the world, the labor pains we're experiencing now will mean nothing more than a memory to the world as it will be after this round of change is complete. So we sit back, we watch and hopefully enjoy the ride.
As we get to witness this extraordinary moment in time, I'm just thankful to have the opportunity to share this experience with all of you.
And what about music? It's still out there, but much like drawing up my experiences on my most recent travels I'm just waiting for the correct opportunity to put it together. One day I'm going to get off my ass, and work with my many talented friends to formally put a CD together and redo many of the tracks that are available here. But for now I'll continue to paint on this blank canvass and hope you can fall into the philosophical bliss we all enjoy.
For those who are looking for some newer tracks, I do have some demo's I think I will be releasing soon. Many thanks to Chris Bolin, Dan Stillwell, and Keith Foster for their time, energy, suffering, and dedication to help make these tracks available. To stay true to the times that the tracks were pulled together, I'll release them here under the demo title "Jaded Daze." I think you all will really enjoy them, including my crackly, screechy vocals.
Blessing, love, and light to all of you!
