I have come to realize more reasons why the title of this blog is appropriate. My last month in Greensboro was possibly the most incredible month of my life thus far. The seeds of joy that have been sewn in my heart during that time will bloom and grow into mighty trees, as Daniel would say (sing), while I'm gone. This summer has been a crazy journey. It's about to get crazier! I have so many things I have to do, it's unbelievable.
That aside, let me tell you about last weekend. The album release show was absolutely incredible. I really think that the sounds that went out over Greensboro that night touched every person there...I don't think anyone walked away unchanged. This would be a ridiculous claim if I was crediting it to us, but I'm certainly not. I have never been part of something with such a huge group of friends working together to make something wildly excellent. Now the trick is to move the whole operation on tour so that other cities can experience what Greensboro did. To be continued.
I don't really have any good pictures of the show yet...we had some photographers and someone doing video, so I'll let you know about that when I get my hands on them. We played a live mini-show on WUAG for RadioGreensboro about a week before the show. I think it sounded great, even though there were only five of us. I think they'll post the recording of it on their website soon. This is us having an impromptu goofy jam session right after we played on the air.
In the meantime, you should probably buy Daniel's album, because it's incredible. Check it out on bandcamp.
Today I am going to attempt to get my life organized. As someone with a heart full of wanderlust, my goal is to have as few possessions as possible. I've been slowly cutting down for the past few years, but it's hard to get rid of stuff sometimes. This is what I'm taking to France: one reasonable-sized suitcase, a backpack, and my guitar.
