Post Gig Ponder – Londohome – Bucharest, RO
Londohome – June 22, 2019. Tequila shots. Sweaty dancing. Chevy El Dorados. Smiles. Sunrises. What more do you need? I can’t party like I used to, but I still try! When Mitchell brought me those two shots of Tequila, I knew the night was going stretch well into the wee morning hours, and by […]
Post Gig Ponder – St. Louis, MO @ Cafe Piazza

The sound check went so well, and my voice had warmed up from the massive green tea I had drank from Starbucks. I was ready […]
Boogie Bar – Bucharest
It is 11:49 am on Sunday September 16th. I have not been this hung-over in an extremely long time. My head is pounding! I know I am not alone in this battle though; I have some fellow comrades feeling the same way. The boys I speak of are my two beer drinking Dutch mates who […]
