So here’s for a long lost awaking….I walked into my first tattoo today!!! Chk it…
Nothing on the major scale but I was sticking with the plain and simple for the first go around…This has been a phrase stuck in my head for the last 3 weeks or so and well…now stuck on me for the rest of my life!! Haha….the randomness of my life!!
It all happened last nite. I finally sat down and made the decision to buy the guitar I have been basking over for a while now…Oh and is it a B-E-A-UTY!!
It’s a Michael Kelly Patriot Limited Edition, made with a spalted maple top. Click on that baby to enlarge the pic and go HERE to read the review on why this guitar won the “Best of Show” at NAMM ’07. It’s a beautiful thing!! The connection between a musician and his guitar(s)!!
I can feel it comin’ in the air tonight…

So you probably have noticed that I have been missing in action for the past week after the Thirsty Conf…I had been having this weird flickering on my Macbook screen before I left for Thirsty and when I got back, that flicker turned into a momentary screen displacement!! So, needless to say, that bad boy was sent into the shop immediately!! Im not even sure what it is they fixed but I know that it wasn’t anything good. But anywho, I have my Mac back and have some things coming your way. It’s good to be back and hopefully I won’t be experiencing this again any time soon.
Thanks for reading

Its that time of the year again. A time for great experiences. A time for me to dive into my French/Cajun/Southern heritage through arts, dance, and music. Gathering with people from all over the world to celebrate something that has become the largest non-profit festival/event in the US. I am blown away every year I attend this thing. You can’t imagine how many artists, organizations, tribes of people attend this HUGE, exciting event. So Im sure you are wondering by now what I am talking about. The one and only…
Festival International de Louisiane … Chk it out there
To give you a lil piece of whats going on here…
Festival International de Louisiane is a community-based, non-profit arts organization formed in 1986 to produce an annual visual and performing arts festival celebrating the French cultural heritage of southern Louisiana – primarily a combination of French, African, Caribbean and Hispanic influences. The largest outdoor, FREE Francophone event in the U.S., the Festival places special emphasis on highlighting the connections between Acadiana and the Francophone world. Each year performing, visual and culinary artists from Europe, Africa, Canada, the Caribbean and the Americas are invited to share their talents with Louisiana artists, residents and visitors.
Since its creation, Festival International de Louisiane has become famous as a premier presenter of some of the most unique world musicians and performances in the United States. Popular Louisiana artists such as Aaron Neville, Irma Thomas, Allan Toussaint, Zachary Richard, Sonny Landreth, Beausoleil, Buckwheat Zydeco, Boozoo Chavis, Amedee “Bois Sec” Ardoin, D.L. Menard, Terrance Simien, C.J. Chenier, Geno Delafose, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Canray Fontenot and Buddy Guy have all performed on our stages.
So you won’t here too much from me this weekend, but thats a good thing. I will be back in touch with you guys with hopefully some sweet news/information/pics etc from the festival. So heres to a great weekend! Hope the same for yours. Chk ya lata

So lately I have been on the largest reading kick in my life…Actually, probably the only reading kick in my life.
I have never really been a reader per say. Of course, under the cosmic alliance of public school systems, I was forced to read stories, novels, poetry, etc. for the merit of a passing grade, but never with the intention of gaining the knowledge and/or awareness that they were offering. Reading was a very distasteful flavor in my mouth due to the way it was beat down my throat and never seemed to have relevance to my life. All this to say that..I was and still am a very stubborn human being!! I want to learn, I want to gain as much knowledge as my frail mind will allow me to..but in the same measure, I tend to push away those very things that would set me on those pathways. So to take the steps I know I need make although I dont feel like it, I am diving into the books!! It will take a whole lot of diligence but Im ready to do this thing. Honestly, it has been going great so far!!!! It has become one of my favorite things to do now. Who knew?!? Anywho, here’s a list of the books Im reading and will read in the near future…
That list looks more intimidating to me now more than ever but it doesn’t know what’s about to hit it!! Hope you guys are having a great week.
