Gratitude List March 31

Gratitude List as we grind through ‘The Rona’ stay home don’t go anywhere everything’s closed scenario.

In no particular order:

I’m grateful that I’m healthy and my family has remained healthy during this Corona Virus scare (henceforth to be referred to as ‘The Rona’ as per Mo Factz).

I’m grateful that I have a full time job that allows me to keep the lights on around here and that I am able to work from home (stressful as it may be at times).

I’m grateful to Randy from Lamb of God for teaching me what a Gratitude List is.

I’m grateful to the local businesses who are being creative in finding ways to keep going with take out options etc, and I’m grateful that I’m able to help keep them going with my support. (Take out Beer Growlers.. who’d have ever thought that would be a thing…)

Thanks for reading evra-body. Keep the PMA and the Attitude of Gratitude!

Spring 2020... Nothing to do but blawg

Damn I am just not good at keeping up with the blawg. I’m still gonna keep trying to get better at it since I pay for the dang thing, lol.

So here we are Spring 2020! Good times all around as the world comes to a halt due to the corona virus scaring everybody’s pants off.

I’m hoping the entire saga ends within a few weeks and we get back to ‘normal’ whatever that is!

In the meantime, try not to freak out, turn off the tv, get off social media and try and keep your local businesses up and running by supporting them as much as you can, and if you have any small bands that you love and want see to keep going, maybe go to their website and buy a CD or a t-shirt. With touring completely stopped, a lot of bands are really struggling with this situation.

Until next time amigos!

2019 Second Half Update

Hola Mi Amigos!

Well we’re heading into the Fall of 2019 and so far it’s been a great year. I hope it’s been great for you too!

I’ve had some awesome performances at several of my favorite brewery venues including Seven Saws in Holden MA, Stone Cow in Barre MA and Rapscallion out in good ol’ Sturbridge MA.

I want to express my gratitude towards everybody at those venues for having me in to perform my music! It really means a lot.

I’ve been learning some new tunes to keep the set-list fresh. Hopefully I can get a few shows booked to round out 2019!

See you out there!
