Love… and some quick thoughts on it…
Feb 01
For those of you that have been following me for a little while you know that I have often times been a big “love” vibe guy. I try to maintain a positive attitude and energy in and around my facebook responses and posts and essentially not be a jaded douche. Although it is hard as hell at times to remain in that “love” space. Someone recently said I was too nice? That it could appear “soft” or “weak” to people. I say fuck that… I don’t respond well to negative energy or darkness. I know, I’m human like you, I can go there very easily too. In fact I’ve been in that place for a little while lately. Sometimes I need a little help to “get out of” that place or space… like an inspiring movie or song or painting, or , um, ART!. Something that can take me back to that warm and fuzzy place of saying “it feels fucking great to be alive”!!. I’ve been through some personal (family) loss lately and that mixed with the holidays is always a special concoction for bummage for me. BUT!, I tell you my friends in the most uncool way, I’m feeling very grateful and I wanted to share that with you . Isn’t it sad that it’s considered “uncool” to say positive loving shit?! What’s up with that? Well, I’ll tell you what’s up with it… we are evolving as a species here on good ol’ earth and realizing everyday that we need to wake up and start being positive and “loving” one another in order to survive. I suggest watching the movie “I AM”. It inspired me to get back on the beam and write this post. Yeah, it seems a bit “Utopian” I know, and ultimately not feasible. But I fear that if we don’t come together and connect and treat eachother with kindness and rise above this bullshit stigma of being cool and aloof, competitive, angry and distant then it’s gonna ultimately kill us. I’m just one tiny voice in the choas doing my part. I definitely try and carry that message through my music and art. I’ve always written about it and try to “live” it but often times it feels like it falls on deaf ears. I know I’m not the only one on this trip and lord knows it’s tough to stay here… Interested in joining me?

fyi- i know some of you were inquiring about my shows in haverhill, and unfortunately over the holidays “The Little River Ale House” was sold and there’s entirely new mgmt there now. My buddy Brian who got me the residency was a bartender there and he got let go also. It all happened over night. Kind of a bummer. I think the place is called “Archie’s” now… anyway, so yeah no more Sunday night solo shows there… much more coming with gigs in the area though so no worries y’all…
peace and love,
BB
