| October 31, 2008

Joe the Unlicensed Plumber with Unpaid Back Taxes has hired a Nashville-based publicity team. I heard he intends to make a country music record. If not really being a plumber doesn’t stop one from saying they’re a plumber, then not really being a country music singer or songwriter shouldn’t stop one from calling himself that [...]

Slumgullion is a type of stew known to mountain men and made by throwing whatever was on hand into a pot. It is also the name of the mountain pass at the bottom of which lies Lake City, CO – which is where I played a solo gig last night, at the Black Crooke Theatre. [...]
