I'M IN HOUSTON ON THE SECOND LEG OF THE "TOM HAMBRIDGE-LONE WOLF TOUR"
SOLD OUT IN VIRGINIA BEACH AND NORTH CAROLINA. THE VIPER ROOM IN LA WAS A TRIP. I SAW LOTS OF GOOD FRIENDS IN ROCHESTER ON A SNOWY NIGHT AT THE WATER STREET MUSIC HALL, JOINED BROTHER WEASE ON THE RADIO FOR A FEW HOURS (VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING I MIGHT ADD) AND BRAMPTON ONTARIO WAS AMAZING WE SOLD OUT OF CD'S THAT NIGHT.
I SPENT A COUPLE DAYS WRITING SONGS WITH THE LEGENDARY BILLY GIBBONS FOR THE NEXT ZZ TOP ALBUM AS WELL AS DELBERT MCCLINTON FOR HIS NEXT RECORD AND OH YEA MEATLOAF FLEW IN TO WORK WITH ME ON 2 SONGS FOR HIS NEXT RECORD. MY KIDS HAD A BALL HANGING WITH THESE LEGENDS AND SO DID I. GOOD STUFF MY FRIENDS!
OK SO I FOUND OUT YESTERDAY THE BUDDY GUY CD I PRODUCED "SKIN DEEP" HAS BEEN NOMINATED FOR A GRAMMY FOR "BEST TRADITIONAL BLUES ALBUM OF THE YEAR" IT WAS ALSO NAMED "BEST BLUES ALBUM OF 2008" AT THE ITUNES 2008 AWARDS. HE DESERVES ALL THIS GOOD STUFF!
BIG NEWS- MY NEW CD IS DONE..........IT WILL BE AVAILABLE IN TIME FOR XMAS. THEY TELL ME I WILL HAVE ONE IN MY HANDS BY DEC. 18TH. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO ORDER AN ADVANCE COPY AND THE DETAILS WILL BE POSTED HERE IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
I'M HEADED OVER TO THE HOUSE OF BLUES HERE IN HOUSTON TO DO A SOUND CHECK. GOT MY COFFEE, A LITTLE MAKER'S MARK FOR LATER AND SOME STICKS. HOPE I SEE YA TONIGHT OR TOMORROW IN DALLAS OR THE NEXT DAY IN TULSA OR THE NEXT DAY IN KANSAS CITY OR THE NEXT DAY IN THE NEXT CITY.
THANKS FOR CHECKIN' IN IT MEANS A LOT.
