Next Stop? Not Niagara

Why was the Niagara show canceled? Are you OK? George S. Patton and losing. Now what?

Roger CortonThe fans have questions so let’s just jump in. First off. How are you?

JCHPhysically, I’m fine. Which is annoying.

RCBecause you ought to be dying to have punked out, motherfucker!

JCHThat is how I feel in my heart.

RCI should point out that I was quoting from a note left by a disappointed fan who was at the non-show. I think he was being sarcastic, but even so, it struck me as insensitive.

JCHHe was just pissed off in the moment. I probably would’ve felt the same–under my breath, anyhoo. But regardless, the short version is that I had a severe headache on the flight into NYC as we were descending. And by ‘severe’ I mean I passed out on the plane. I woke up in the hospital Saturday morning. They did some tests and it turns out that the nerve which […]

Next Stop Niagara

Just got off the phone with Rog and y’all should have just received an e-mail with some final details. I’m about to head out the door and I can’t wait to see everyone on Saturday.

It takes a ton of effort from people who don’t get paid to make these shows happen. Saying ‘Thanks’ as many times as I do sounds phony, but I don’t quite know what else to say.

And I know it sounds all chick-flick sentimental, but the support I’ve received over the years gets me all choked up whenever I think about it; which is a lot. My wind pipe is a mess.

One last thing: I haven’t gone into this for a while, but the state of the music biz continues to deteriorate. There are literally only a few dozen people out there who make a living selling creative music. And I meant that literally. Ninety nine point nine nine nine percent of professional musicians now do not make any kind of […]

Record Low Gas

With final prep for the Niagara Falls Party in full swing, we re-visit gear acquisition syndrome. Teaching. Malcolm Gladwell. Ten Thousand Hours. Behavior Modification.

Roger CortonSounds like you’re still getting over that virus?

JCHYep. Some surprising symptoms.

RCAre they gross?

JCHGAS. Or rather, a total lack of it.

RCLet me tell ya, in my family, that would be a definite plus!

JCHBut of course, I’m talking about G.A.S. Not the… well, you know.

RCGear Acquisition Syndrome. Bane of musicians everywhere. The almost uncontrollable urge to purchase new musical stuff either to help one play better or…

JCHOh cut the comedy. Just because it’s FUUUUUUUN. It’s like NASCAR for kids with long, oily hair.

RCAre those the kids who still play rock guitar? OK, so why are thoughts of GAS (sorry) evacuating from you at this particular juncture?

JCHI love when you let loose. Enough. Look, I made my first ‘home’ recordings of my […]
