Ok, But Seriously.

I know it can get a little cliche for touring artists to go ON an ON about how awesome the people they work with are.
So I'm going to spare you.
But seriously, the people I have had the pleasure of sharing the last 30-ish days with have been a joy. I have loved being able to just hang with all of these folks, and have talks about life, and aspirations, and future's, and art, and music. We all know that we have nothing to prove to each other, and it has been a real slice (If I may use the catch phrase of the lovely "Brooke girls").
This recent adventure has presented the opportunity for a lot of my close friends, AKA: the dudes I ride in a van with nearly everyday of my life, to think about the bigger picture. I feel like a lot of us are really starting to get past the strings, the cables, the speakers, the wooden tubs we hit, or the raised platforms and lights. I hope that soon we can all transcend a bit and find an even deeper love for our work.
Don't get me wrong, I love what I do,and so does everyone else in the van. But one of the benefits of being a hard worker (which I think I am) is that I will always want to improve, and I hope to stay great full no matter where this road takes me.
Hope I don't come off too pompous or self indulging, but I think you all know what I'm getting at.
Seriously, though. You get it. Just kidding!

But seriously.

Happy summer everyone!
