whoa. look at all those dates. i am so, so, so incredibly thrilled. the greek theatre? the fillmore? the sunset blvd house of blues? it’s unreal. i saw both radiohead and incubus at the greek theatre…i cannot believe that i’m going to be standing on that same stage.

i’ve had the most amazing time, in the last three weeks. traveling around, playing to a new crowd every night, is more fun than i could have ever imagined. it just feels like i’m doing exactly what i’m supposed to be doing.

the corey smith crew really made me feel at home. they are such great, sweet, and down-to-earth people. i found some lifelong friends in those guys. sam thacker, the second opener for corey, is AMAZING. check him out at myspace.com/samthacker. he’s even more amazing live.

now, i’m sitting at home, loving it. there is nothing like the house you grew up in. my room here is my haven. the moment i walk through the door, i’m inspired. i love my neighborhood in the summer. it’s so quiet and warm and breezy. i forgot how much i missed crickets at night. for those of you who haven’t been to montana, come here at some point in your life. it’s really an experience. i really love it here. it’s awesome to be here with my mom, dad, sister, and doggy. =)

so, i’m going to be on Y-93 tomorrow morning, and maybe planet 107.9 (they’re both billings radio stations)!! i’m so excited! i’m going to stop by for an interview and i’m going to play a song…either just a phase or these two hands.

then, tomorrow night, i’m back at my old “stomping grounds”…the yellowstone valley brewing co.! i am so excited to be playing a show here in billings. there’s nothing like playing to your home town!! after that, i’m heading back to la. i’ve got some stuff to take care of before i go out with COLLECTIVE SOUL, LIVE, AND BLUES TRAVELER!!! i’m going crazy i’m so excited. i can’t even sit still. i feel like i’m in a dream world. it’s going to be incredible.

i’m going for a jog now. leave me a comment and let me know how your summers have been so far!!!

thank you so much for all of your support. you guys are amazing.
=D
