Nice peoples

Hi friends, I've been playing alot of gigs out of town lately, like this weekend, when I opened up for City of Sparks in Salmon Arm BC! And a coupla weeks ago when we played in Banff, Canmore and Red Deer. One thing I've noticed that caught me off guard... people in these other places were nice and quiet and listened to me play, and clapped in the appropriate places, and liked me in general.

I know, I was shocked too!

Where's the drunk guy yelling "Bon Jovi!" at me?! Where's the couple in the back who want it turned down, and not because they happen to be in a place that advertises live music, or they think that one girl with one piano is too loud, or because I'm swearing and saying something inappropriate (I would never)but I have no idea why... and by the way, where's my friends that don't think anything other than country is music? Where's that guy?

Instead, there were these nice people that enjoyed what I did, listened, never yelled anything other than "woo!" at the end of a song they really liked (some were even originals!!??) and enjoyed the music of the next band as well! They liked everyone playing anything! They were so nice! It was amazing and fun!

Now I have played to some very loving friends in Edmonton as well, but alot of times not so loving, and I think I've developed a slight attitude and have come to a few gigs with a game face ready to wage war on idiots that are yelling shit at me... but I remember now "hey some people do like music!" and "I CAN have fun playing music!" I probably used to have this much fun... and it feels good again!

So all my lovelies that have never heckled me and enjoy whatever the crap I play, I hope you come out to the CD Release I have finally booked. May 5th (Ajay's bday! But don't get him shitfaced until he's OFF stage!) at the Artery with Seanburns.ca and we will enjoy music and friends and life TOGETHER! Instead of me wanting to slap my own face until I work in an office somewhere.
