Yeah it's true, September is my favourite month. I remember coming back from the lake to go to school. It was bittersweet, because up to junior high there was always a new summer crush, and parting was such sweet sorrow. That being said I remember that September led to so many high school romances, and that it set the tone for the rest of the year. I remember getting up early 3 times a week for wind ensemble (bass clarinet all four years), and I remember all of the birthday party's I had in September. My family did not have much spare cash, but birthday party's were never a let down. The best was taking 12 guys from my hockey team to the Ichiban, where we indulged in the Karate Kid Special, headband included! And I also remember getting a clock radio one morning before elementary school started. It was the rectangle shaped type with 2 round discs poking out of the right side of the box. I think I wanted this cause my grand parents had one with blue digital numbers, mine had red, and I thought it was real nice. I like the leaves changing, and the seasons shifting completely, and my nose getting chilly.

This year is gonna be good too. The release of the CD and the concert has all of my attention. We're about a week and a half away and then I have two friends coming up from New Orleans to see the show and a chance to relax in Winnipeg while things settle down. It will be nice to be a tour guide in my own city, doesn't happen often and it should. My hope now is to promote the CD and connect with everyone who has purchased a previous record and has ever been a fan, followed by tour after tour after tour. Going for the brass ring.
