picture worth a 1000 word

I haven't blogged in a very long time. I haven't written much of anything (besides songs) in many months. I have felt very drained of the simple process of determining thoughts and typing them. But something has to be said of the picture at the bottom, taken by my friend Andrew Moisey as I concluded our show at The Derby in Los Angeles two Saturdays ago.This is the best picture of me I have ever seen.This is how I feel every moment of my life.If you ever don't understand my actions, or think what I say is absurd, or wonder why I just can't get some part of my life together, take a look at this picture--arms stretched to the sky in futility, eyes lost somewhere in the distance of subconscious thought, sweating, tired, literally spent, so close to the microphone as if even I want to make sure I can hear what is about to come out of my mouth--take a look at this picture and think of me.It's what I feel like I look like when I feel like I am me..
