Freakin Finally

 Hello Folks, its been while! Well, dare I jinx myself, it appears we have a band. There has been much debate over whether or not I should do shows, when I should do shows, what the shows would look like, etc. The bottom line has always been and always will be, if I can't present the material in a way I see fit and is commensurate with the recordings or better, I'm not going to do it. All things happen in their own time. It appears the time has come. We finally have a group of like-minded, unencumbered players that have committed their minds, time, and talent to putting on a performance I consider true to the vision. Some of it will sound a little different than the recordings, but you'll finally hear what they should have sounded like and see the stories behind some of them. The first show will be in Western New York and if successful, we'll do a few more here. Stay tuned for the date!

New Projects starting to fire up!

 Well, most of the locals know I'm playing lead guitar in a Godsmack Tribute called Greed. A bit of a niche gig, but a ton of fun...you can find that at http://www.myspace.com/greedsmack...stop by and say hi!

Mick Hayes Band guest appearance

 Playing today at Mickey Rat's (Angola on the Lake) with the Mike Hayes Band! For the uninitiated, the MHB is by far the forerunner in WNY Blues....tight act, good guys.

Prospectus about done!

Yep...finally...believe it? Neither do I...but alas, its almost done. Have a taste of some preview tracks down there in there player....Some things you wouldn't expect, but then more of what you've come to expect.

Have a lovely day.

Big Blanket Update (Because I've slacked off ;))

- Well....Prospectus looks like it will finally be a reality :) After much work, direction changes, tinkering, tweaking, its right where I had it in the first place. Note to self, don't over think. Anyway, looking at about 3 weeks....and there are a few surprise tracks ;)

- Heading to Nashville....its not that I don't like Western New York, my friends, family, and bands, its simply a business decision. Afterall, my goal is to be able to write and record for a living...thus, I must place myself where that is most likely. Today, that seems to be Nashville.

 - Journey of Life Productions is as always, busting ass to get us out there. Through much work, JOL has us in front of several companies who regularly shop soundtrack tunes for film and television. These include;

Disney, 20th Century Fox, Warner Brothers, ABC, Paramount Pictures, The Weinstein Company, HBO, Miramax, CBS, Screen Gems, Universal Pictures, Sony Pictures, Showtime, The Discovery Channel, Lionsgate Pictures, NBC
 
- JOL is also working on our physical distribution with several chains including Barnes & Noble and Border's Books. Look for in-store acoustic sessions for this ;)

I'm sure there is more going on, but it escapes me. I will post as it floats back into my head :)

INFINITY Entertainment Ltd. Backing

INFINITY Entertainment Ltd., the parent company of INFINITY Records has decided to back my efforts! This isn't one of those "plucked out of everyday life and thrust into..blah blah blah" deals, but rather what I consider to be a mutually beneficial arrangement that will alow me to get my songs out and still live a semi-normal life. May be something, may be nothing...but it smells wonderful. - LP
