This has been the month of reunions...well sort of...I'm looking through a Billboard magazine today and lo-and-behold I see that my buddy Dan from college has just co-written and produced the latest Backstreet Boys single. This is the guy who produced my very first demos. I remember singing in his closet in the back bedroom of this house he was renting by Nashville Tech. Those were the good old days..everybody trying to get something going..doing demos anywhere you could..singing whatever, whenever to whomever. ..and then Darci finds me on myspace..she's out in L.A. singing..writing...she just did a song for the movie Napoleon Dynamite - she's an amazing singer check out her site: http://www.darcimonet.com - Then my friend Phillip from L.A. called and we got caught up and I heard all about the new movie he's producing and the stars he's trying to cast..very exciting...maybe I'll get to go to the premiere...or better yet maybe he'll put one of my songs in the film (Phillip are you listening?) it makes me feel good knowing that my friends are successful and haven't given up and keep chasing after the dream day after day (ok I guess by now the dream has just changed into work) Hopefully every time I start feeling down-and-out I will refer back to this entry and see that all is not lost...if my friends continue to keep at it so should I...speaking of friends...no wonder Dan never called me back.
