Life is Sweeter (Wherever You Are)

If you’ve been following my postings, you’ll know that I’m here in my hometown of The Bronx…So far being in New York has proven one thing…that life is sweeter wherever you are. By that I mean I haven’t been home in 7 years, and believe me when I tell you that a helluva lot has changed in my city.
Uncharacteristic of me, I was in Manhattan and had a panic attack. I actually had to move to the side of the street and hang out against a wall.Now I know that this is all due to the fact that I haven’t been here in so long, but really I’m comfortable anywhere I wander, but being around a trillion people at once kinda threw me for just a minute.
Anyway, I really am having a ball, hanging out with my best 2 friends Angela and Stacey…these 2 ladies are a riot together, and Angie and I hope to work on some music as well.
If you remember the TV show Mc Cloud ( with Dennis Weaver) where he was the country Sheriff in New York , well that’s about how I’m feeling now…just out of place.
None the less being home has put a song in my heart, it’s allowing me to re-charge my battery, and when I go back to Charleston I’ll be ready to deal with some serious Carpenter Ants music.I’ve come up with a plan to start moving us forward, and getting us here to New York, And subsequently to the masses.
Now the purpose of this title…I’ve been bitching and moaning about wanting to return home as a big star, but I’ve come to realize that I have some serious work to do, and I need to accept that I live in West Virginia now, and that getting what I want out of life requires me to be happy…no matter where I am.. Why, because life is sweeter…wherever you are

Support Live music today tomorrow and always

Hi, NYC! :)

Take care - panic attacks are no fun. Have fun in NY!

Thanks again a million times for the musical goodness, BTW! I think "Picnic With The Lord" is my favorite, and my kids were loving it the last few weeks of school!
